More from Turtle Bay

I'm back from my vacation now, and should be back in the habit of daily updates too. Here's an easy one to start with: pictures from Turtle Bay...

If anyone could help me identify this butterfly, it'd be greatly appreciated.


Turtle Bay encompasses many types of museums and areas of study. They have sections devoted to forestry and natural history, animals from a rescued box turtle to a black vulture, as well as an arboretum and gardens. We didn't get to see everything, of course, since the trip was cut short due to a vegetation fire on the grounds. But we did see a lot.

This was an interesting juxtaposition to me: the old and the new technologies.
