Submitted by: KarenV
Specimen type: Photograph
Observation notes: I was just going to take a picture of the rose, and there was this little butterfly on it... We have been having an unusually up and down spring here, and today was warmer than the last little while - about 80 degrees F. A severe storm watch was just coming up - it was just a half hour or so before the tornado sirens went off for hail and high wind warning (which never did pan out.)
