An Orange Sulphur on a clover.

We still haven't gotten any rain. The butterflies aren't going to have any wildflowers left.

Thank you for your visits, comments, and faves!!! :0)
No rain here either! Great capture!

That's one of your best. So soft and delicate. Our Sulphurs tend to be yellow.

It took me a moment to see the butterfly; it blends so well. Very pretty and delicate touch you have here
June 27th, 2012  
Such delicate colour variations and a beautiful macro capture.
June 27th, 2012  
Really pretty capture of the hungry butterfly :)
June 27th, 2012  
Splendid capture. Love the pale textures.

When the heat is pounding like it did the other week it really is hard on them. She is trying hard to maintain her beauty
June 27th, 2012  
we had about fifteen raindrops yesterday....even the weeds aren't growing this year.
June 27th, 2012  
fabulous! Your shots always have an awesome clarity.
June 27th, 2012  
That color combination is fantastic - such a pretty capture. You got its beauty and fragileness all in one - we're so dry and I couldn't even find one of these today. At least we're not in Colorado - though I'm sure Florida would share.
June 27th, 2012  
Fav so gorgeous! What a refreshing image.
June 27th, 2012  
@chard I hope there aren't any fires near you!
June 27th, 2012  
Beautiful!
June 27th, 2012  
I'm always amazed at the quality of your shots captured with your 300mm lens. I probably already asked you what kind of lens it is, would you mind to tell me again ?
June 27th, 2012  
Very stunting , great clearaty, very beautiful.
June 27th, 2012  
Splendid light on this one.
June 27th, 2012  
@cjwhite some small ones have started this afternoon.
June 28th, 2012  
Beautiful. Blends in with the leaves of the flowers
June 28th, 2012  
@chard Stay safe!!!
June 28th, 2012  
@bardejov Thank you! I use a Canon 75-300mm zoom lens. :0)
June 28th, 2012  
Beautiful capture. Great color tones. NO rain here either. We are now experiencing record breaking heat. Plants are looking bad.
June 28th, 2012  
Wonderful close up. Glad you liked my Monarch.
June 28th, 2012  
Beautiful colors in this one. I've never seen one before. Very cool.
