Welcome to SuburbanMaven. This site has no consistent objective, perspective or theme. It began when I challenged myself to figure out how to create a blog; something my son's 7th grade class did. I wanted to know how.

I don't presume that there will be a large following to this blog. I don’t have much worth saying and like most people, I am once in a while witty and occasionally even funny but I am rarely both and never reliably so. That said, I enjoy photography and especially enjoy trying to photograph butterflies. I’m inspired by creation and the world around me- the natural order of things, and I like to write, though I rarely make the time.

Polygonia interrogationis

Note the pattern in the shape of a white question mark on the hind wing. Hence the name, Question Mark butterfly.
