No witnesses, didn’t happen

These days, there are cameras everywhere.

To Irwin, butterflies are more entertaining than golf. And I agree—it’s like watching paint dry!!

Prairie Pool? No, thanks. Too much like exercise.

Don’t forget that a butterfly in the Amazon had to flap its wings in order for you to get that hole in one.

And is such a beautiful butterfly❣️

She is a witch, she can always golf an 18 game.

45 prefers no witnesses when he golfs, they might contradict the scores he writes for himself. At least once he wasn’t even on a course when he turned in his score. Most of his holes-in-one over the years have been gimmes from the box… Imagine him getting an actual hole-in-one and the frustration of having no witness to verify it.

Sadly, too many people see a caterpillar and kill it without thinking that it will turn into a beautiful butterfly or moth. I always grow extra tomatoes and other plants for them to grow up and gather some of them to protect from racoons. Right now I have over a dozen monarch caterpillars in a cage.

We’re getting a few of the Monarch butterflies coming through on their migration to Mexico. Sadly, we see fewer each year.

We don’t have many butterflies here, even after three years of planting for them.

We know what’s a higher priority to Irwin!

Aaaackk! Broomy, not cool!

Broomie’s saying “Steal my thunder will you!”.

Her next hole in one will fly like a butterfly to the hole as she guides it with her magic finger.

Butterfly, it flutterby

Broom Hilda’s sigh

in her golfing fun

she made a hole in one

sadly

not seen by anyone…

(In honor of Sol & Ish)

I can understand her consternation. Generally, a course won’t recognize a hole-in-one, unless it was witnessed.

The Golfing Witch is angry at the innocent butterfly for its diverting Irwin’s attention from her precious Hole-in-One.

I’d stand with Irwin, actually, except that I fear the witch!
