Beautiful butterfly pictures! I love finding them resting in the backyard. Mine aren't usually that cooperative when it comes to posing for the camera though.
Hi Maggie ~ I felt very lucky. My dog had been outside with me and I was so scared that she was going to scare the moth away.
Hi Natalie ~ Thanks. :)
Hi Beth ~ This was a very lazy butterfly/moth. Thought he was hurt but he finally flew away.
Hi Shelly ~ Isn't nature amazing!
Hi Pink Dogwood ~ :)
Hi Kim ~ I am lucky to be surrounded by many surprising moments.

Hi Toni ~ You are very welcome!
Hi Itajeff ~ Welcome to my place!
Hi Jenn ~ Thanks!
Hi Daryl ~ :)
Hi Shaye ~ He was a tricky fella! :)
Hi Marg ~ Um, it wasn't as smooth as all that. I saw him, got my dog into the house, grabbed my camera, was out of breath, prayed that he would still be in my garden and then I got the shot. Just lucky.
Hi Bookbabie ~ Thanks for stopping in.
Hi Beth F ~ Thanks.
Hi Ake ~ I almost didn't see it when I was going through my pictures! ;)
How wonderful. I never seem to have my camera to hand when I see something like this. Thank you for visiting me. I have added you to my daily reads. I hope your Dad is soon feeling better.
Brilliant! Great shots.

I am still waiting for one to land by me when I have my camera in my hand and when I have no one with me to scare it away!
