Aw, thanks! Butterflies are up there with raindrops as some of my favorite things to capture. Raindrops are a bit more cooperative, though. 😁

That butterfly looks huge. Is it? Here are some closeup shots for this week https://travel-with-tech.blog/2019/11/11/plants-by-the-side-of-the-road/

It does look huge against the flowers. I don’t think the butterfly was any larger than a monarch. The flowers were small so the contrast makes the butterfly stand out even more. 😊

Yep… the only reason I haven’t shared a photo yet is because I didn’t get one… my good lady beat me to it so I didn’t want to crown the scene! I’ll get one from her to share! 😉
