Droopy flower

It's so sad to see my butterfly bush without any butterflies. I have only seen a few around it this summer. Makes me very concerned - I hope their populations recover.

Wonderful shot - love the color of the butterfly bush - I'm looking at the same problem here - two butterfly bushes, several milkweed plants, and no (or darn few) butterflies. Scary. Your dof is just super.

Is this a lilac or another flower the name of which I can't remember as usual! Beautiful shot of it with the white bokeh in the background!

A beautiful coloured buddleia against wonderful bokeh background . It is the same here in my garden in the UK I have a couple of buddleia bushes , usually swarmed with bees and butterflies , but this year hardly any at all !!

Beautiful capture with some awesome bokeh. I wish I had more on my 4 butterfly bushes too, but I have seen 1 Monarch, 1 Spicebush Swallowtail and 1 Tiger Swallowtail.
