Oooh! And not just any butty either....a beautiful peacock butterfly. They are usually the last butties to leave us as well...although i havent seen one for over a month, lol. I guess they travel south for the winter and thats why you got them instead of me, lol. And that dandelion sure looks healthy too considering you had to defrost your windshield this morning...burr. Even we havent had to do that yet...and i hope it will be a while before we do. Bla bla bla. Gorgeous macro!!!! Hey..i have that lens too and its definitly price-worthy wouldnt you say? Have a wonderful evening Kim. #:o)

Beautiful and the angel you caught it makes me feel like the spots (eyes) on the wings are watching me. Very nice.

Gorgeous capture : They are probably the longest-lived butterflies in Britain, with adults surviving from late July, well into the following spring, perhaps into June. Thus, contrary to popular belief that butterflies only live for a few days, some Peacocks may live to see their 11th month (albeit having spent five or six months of their adult lives asleep in hibernation).

HKim, that's an excellent macro image ! I uploaded a very similar image of the peacock butterfly [www.renderosity.com/mod/gallery/index.php?image_id=1306639 and I borrowed our title... I hope you don't mind ;-) (I gave you credit with a link to your beautiful picture !) And as Marlene is saying, I hope you have a butty-ful day ! Hugs ! :~)
