Thanks, Jim.
I probably won't remember, though. I love flutterbys, but so far tend to not
remember many of their names. Perhaps
because English has their obvious generic name wrong. ;-)
The Spanish name 'Mariposa' seems to me more appropriate, if we can't just call
them what they so obviously are,
"Flutterby".
