So, in celebration of summer (today), I give you butterflies!
Isn't this little guy cute?
This guy did not want to show me his wing spread. I took about 25 pictures and most of them were blurry.
Gotcha!
A little tattered and torn...
Oops! Not a butterfly! But working hard to get at that nectar!
These are sooo beautiful! Wings are deep dark brown on the outside and look like bark.
Is this one a butterfly? or a faery?...

What a beautiful day it is where you are! What a nice blog Renate. You got the quote I saw exactly right and I just forgot too that it was Marc Chagall's. Thank you for the gift of quoting it correctly for me. You are a wonderful photographer! The earrings are so frilly, and remind me of butterflies. Catherine Witherell
