Tiny

I went out in the yard with the macro lens to see what I could find. This little butterfly was so tiny and I got one shot and one shot only as the shutter scared him away. He was sitting on the tiny Moonbeam Coreopsis.

Wow! That is So delicate and pretty.

[Maggiemae]

Gosh that was good! The butterfly might have been in more focus but like this, it looks like a very momentous flutterby! .

[Yvonne]

What a beautiful little butterfly.

This reminds me of a pretty lady in a lacy dress!! So beautiful ... and lovely flowers also. I do know how quickly they move, Cathy. I lost many shots over the summer and never did get a dragonfly! Who knew how fast they were. lol And I won't even go into the birds. Funny how they move away when the camera clicks.

[Robin]

Beautiful, Cathy. How lucky that you got this.

[Julia]

so beautiful!

[Vee]

That's a new one for me...oh no...I sense that I'm not only becoming a birder but a insect watcher as well!

[MaryBeth Dailey]

They love those yellow flowers! I did not know the name of the flowers...they are so bright and pretty in this pic!

[Ann H. LeFevre]

Lovely shot Cathy- he's a beauty and so is the flower! FYI- your little butterfly is an Eastern Tailed Blue.

[Phil]

Gosh it looks tiny too... well done on catching it and not cropping it to lose its size.

[ShanneW]

nice shot, i was thinking it looked like a blue butterfly - but I'm on the wrong continent for knowing exactly

[🐓 Patricia Fletcher]

Small and so pretty. Well captured!

[Lisa Pouncy]

Pretty little thing. That's the trouble with macro shots, you have to get so close xx

[Howard Steele]

[Humphrey Hippo]

Got to love that beautiful yellow.

Neat colors whatever kind of butterfly it is.

[Sybil Freeman]

Oh this one is so pretty ..... Looks like the ones I chase around in the yard and never get a shot

[Lyn]

lovely. . .I like the idea of the scale of it judging from your description.
