Butterflies
We have some bush in our front yard that just attracts tons of butterflies (and bees). So I tried to take some pictures.

I've heard that water mixed with sugar attracts butterflies.
Haven't tried this yet. Is this true?

get a potted plant sometime, one that doesn't require tedious caring for.
and then you can just set it indoors
