    Default Party at the poop!

    There's nothing like some fresh Great Blue Heron poop to get the boys together for a party!

    At the peak of the party, there were 10 different species of butterflies and 1 fly.

    Now that is neat Ken. There's obviously something in the poop that they want/need. The white stuff is made of Uric Acid, and we know that the brown stuff is made of.

    Danny, that was soooooooo bad! :p

    Ken, that is amazing...I've never seen anything like it. Tomorrow, instead of going in search of butterflies I'll just go find a GBH and wait for the show!

    Awesome image!

    Male butterflies need minerals that females don't and they get them from mud, feces, urine etc.

    Danny, that was terrible.....but I still laughed. :D
