Yes, I have seen butterflies coming to my flowers since last Thursday. I was like a child happy seeing 1 cute white butterfly hopping from one flower to the other on my balcony. I was not able to take a photo of the first butterfly but yesterday, before I went to a walk, there were 2 white butterflies flying from one flower to the other. This time, I was able to take photos and videos of them.
I am really like a child when it comes to something like butterflies, bumblebees, damselflies, dragonflies and birds. I love nature and these little creatures make me happy all the time.
I will post the photo after posting this. I am writing on my computer and the photo is on my iPhone. Tell me please if you have seen the butterflies.
Thank you for reading and have a nice Saturday to all.

@renicemae They are called Lantana Camara, the one with clusters, Pansy(Pansies, the one with other colors in the middle). I forgot the name of the pink flowers but the red one is rose.

The one white butterfly is on the leaves on the right side below the yellow lantana camara flower. The other butterfly is in the middle of the photo sipping the nectar of the yellow lantana camara flower. Thank you @birjudanak

Nope lately. But there's a new species of butterfly found in our own island in Negros. It's discovered by Jade Aster Badon, a biologist who name the new butterfly after Justin S. Nuyda, a painter and one of the first Filipinos to document the country's butterflies.

Thank you @LotusEyes. They are not marigold flowers. They are zinnias, pansies and roses.
