I thought it was a butterfly

sitting on the pincushion. As I came closer I noticed the little feather of a guinea fowl stuck there.

I was rather disappointed.

Anybody can capture a butterfly. How many people can capture a beautiful feather on a flower like this? Not many I’m sure.

Lovely nonetheless.....

Beautiful, I thought the feather was a butterfly at first too. It’s a lovely feather too.

How intriguing.

[Lou Ann]

I agree with Katy- butterflies are pretty and great to get pictures of, but this feather on this plant is quite unique!

So cute with the feather in it’s “cap”

Beautifully captured in wonderful detail and colours Diana:)

I love your photo and its description. Agreed, a polka dotted feather is not as exciting as a fluttering butterfly. Darn! You made me chuckle.
