Description

I think this is one of the most beautiful butterflies to ever visit my backyard. :-) I hope he visits again so I can have another try at getting his photo! I am going to try to start going through the gallery but it sounds like a thunderstorm is approaching (bringing MUCH needed rain) so I may have to log off. I will get back to the galleries this evening though, I promise. Thank you for your much appreciated comments. Have a wonderful weekend! Wendy Panasonic Lumix DMC-FZ30

Beauty Butter !!! Such colors and how you captured it so well !! If I could say without offending you :the post wild size, is a little too large ( big ? ), we couldn't watch and read just at first look... Any case that doesn't affect the beauty of your photo, Excellent Wendy q:) Magali

Wow! A butterfly SLURPEE! I didn't know they made such a thing! That butterfly sure seems to be enjoying that! Looks like it could be orange-flavored. LOL. Magnificent capture Wendy! I'm just glad they slurp flowers and not people! A proboscis like that would really smart! OUCH! Have a most wonderful weekend my friend. [Hugs]
