They don't take flight.

Like I used to know about it or its name or something.

Out milkweed isn't out like this yet. I hope the butterflies are just as enthusiastic here so I can get some great shots like these!<br /><br />I've noticed many more butterflies this year than last...and that's a very good thing.
