Butterfly World

We made a visit to Butterfly World in Coconut Creek, Fl.(near Ft. Lauderdale). http://www.butterflyworld.com/. It is a great place to visit as most of it is outside (with the butterflies, birds, flowers etc inside large netted areas). The variety of butterflies is wonderful. It is a bit difficult to take great photos however, as by the time they open in the morning the butterflies are already quite active and the backgrounds are very busy. But we enjoyed the place anyway. Any help with names for the unidentified butterflies and birds would be appreciated
