About to sit down for a very late start, I glanced out the window and caught sight of an orange flutter, so I grabbed the camera and ran out, but obtained only a couple of images before my visitor flew off. . So far I've not been able to identify it. The butterfly bush takes many weeks to bloom, but then you can see why it was thus named. It was this bush that caught Grant's attention two days ago. Those visitors were more cooperative... . My eyes (or brain?) have difficulty processing an abundance of detail, particularly in bright sunlight, so I point and shoot and hope for the best. . Swallowtails. I managed to get them both in a couple of shots, but mostly I focussed on one at a time. . The camera's bird setting works best. . . I end up with a whole series of images that are very slightly different, then have to decide which is best. This can be time consuming! . Can you even spot the difference? . Not only does the bush attract pretty avian creatures, but it sets them off quite nicely. . . . How exquisite and lovely are butterflies? . . All animals have a place in my heart. They are all precious in their unique and wonderful ways. Being able to fly somehow makes them magical. . And butterflies are so very fragile. | | | |
