    Hi from Cornwall,England!
    My main reason for joining this forum is to gain knowledge on butterflies, i've started taking pictures of them but can't identify!
    Once I become more adept at aforementioned knowledge gaining I hope to help out others who join the forum, sort of repaying the favour for help I'll get myself.

    Hi, welcome to GardenStew from north Texas.
    We have members from all over the world and most of us have butterfly books so you will find plenty of help with the ID's
    We have a growing Butterfly/Moth forum
    http://www.gardenstew.com/forum-38.html

    Post your butterfly pictures there and I am sure someone will be able to name them for you.

    Welcome

    Welcome from coastal NC, deku. You can find photos of many of them here on the "stew" My blog has Swallowtails, which are plentiful here in the south. Post your photos and you'll get many replies, I'm sure. :setc_005:

    Hi Deku and a warm welcome to GardenStew. I hope we can help you with your butterfly IDs, I have no idea about butterflies but others know lots.

    BTW your name 'Deku', are you a Zelda fan?

    Don't forget to check out our blogs and member map.

    Hello there and welcome to GardenStew from 'up north' in Scotland. :-D It won't be long until you find out the names of your butterflies I'm sure as we have quite a few folks who are great at IDing them.

    HAHA! Frank that is surely the most unexpected reply i could have imagined.
    I am a zelda fan(and hence a nintendo fan)which explains the deku in deku123.
    I'm glad to meet a kindred spirit in such an unexpected place,lol!

    P.s Thanks for being so welcome everyone, i'll get those photos on soonish.
