Butterfly on hibiscus

I thought it was pretty neat that this lady obligingly landed on a red hibiscus for me.

Well wasn't she accommodating! Lucky you!

Yep - you don't get much luckier than this in the colour department. This looks wonderful. Is that butterfly orange???

[Arnold Garza]

Amazing detail!! Great colors too!! Very well done!

[Sheralee S]

@murnane It's a deep yellow Marg. I think the early morning sun has warmed the colours up a bit.

[Robin]

Isn't it wonderful when they do that? I've just posted one, too, coincidentally. It's been a great season for butterflies; probably all the rain we've been having. This is a lovely capture.

[Shelly]

very pretty Sheralee...love the colors

[Sheralee S]

@girlie I think you're right Robin, I don't know if I'm imagining it but seems to me there's more around lately. Yours is gorgeous.

[CocoRose]

Very neat! Lovely capture.

[Geertje K.]

It sure is pretty! I love the colours!
