Waiting and watching

I'm waiting and watching for the more colorful butterflies. I've seen a couple of swallowtails, but they were flying as fast as their wings could take them. More wildflowers need to bloom.

Thank you for the kind comments and faves on yesterday's pics! Taking pics and the 365 keeps me sane more than ever these days.

A beautiful capture. It almost blends in with the foliage.

Well we know you will get some nice shots in here Carolyn. Your area seems to be the butterfly magnet.

[Dandolo]

Lovely shot! The eye is beautiful. Is this a female orange tip? None of these about yet up here in the north west of England. Soon I hope!

[Carolyn White]

@dandolo Thank you! It's a male Cabbage White. :0)

[Claire]

It is nice to see the butterfly's again, too cold here yet

[Milanie]

They're starting - so far I've "seen" (by looking quite quickly_ 2 "real" butterflies - probably 3 states away before they landed. We too have a few of the cabbage whites and clouded sulphurs showing, but that's it. This is a nice clear shot of him.

I, too, have spotted many different types, but none wants to settle down right now. what's up with that?
