Finally - a Monarch

I've really been extra lucky that at least one butterfly a day is showing up in the mornings while I am able to sit under the eaves in the shade - and before it gets super hot. Glad the yard is fenced because neighbors might wonder about me sitting on the ground watching a bush!

This is beautiful, Milanie. We walked very early this morning, hoping to beat the heat. Of course we melted in the high humidity.

Lovely close up.

Good shot- and don't worry if the neighbors see you staring at a bush you will be in good company! There are a lot of us here on 365 whose neighbors see "strange photo behavior" all the time!

Your comment about sitting on the ground, staring at a bush made me laugh. The things we do for the sake of a photo! Beautiful one you got here.
