yum, protein!

today we went to the wild animal park to check out the butterfly jungle. it's an annual exhibit that is only open a few weeks in the spring. you walk into an enclosure where the butterflies flit from flower to tree to nectar-laced table. sometimes they even land on you! it's a very popular exhibit and sometimes the wait to get in is pretty outrageous, but i think it's worth it. while we were waiting, there was a wild animal park employee passing out meal worms and crickets as snacks! he said it was guaranteed to make me go into labor so i kindly passed (though i have had the pleasure of bug eating in thailand!) but justin stepped up to the challenge. i've got some great shots of the butterflies coming but in the meantime, enjoy watching justin nosh on cricket while you wait.
