Flutterby

212 / 365
Flutterby is one of the new words I've learned on the 365. I think it fits this butterfly perfectly. The Black Swallowtail flutters its wings rapidly, when it lands on flowers. I've made countless blurred pictures of them.

Thank you for your views and comments!!! A very special thank you to richard@chard who posted a pic of some gorgeous butterfly art pieces for me yesterday! It really made my day!!! :0)

It's a fun word, one with a bit more true to life meaning.

You know what else is a good name for those critters? Schmetterling, which is the German name for Flutterby. It's pronounced the way it looks.
Another freaking fabulous shot! Wow! Love the polka dotted body

I think the fashion industry could take a leaf out of the flutterby style manual. She/he is gorgeous.
