Yeah! i am so glad I got those! *************************************************************************** There was a Monarch hanging around my Tropical Butterfly Weed today. Not that this is the first time--but I grabbed mu camera and put it on macro and stood there--only a couple feet away and waited... It came and went...and came again. Took a lot of shots trying to catch it with wings fully open. But--as it fed--the wings remained closed. Got a couple half way open-as it was about to take off. And then--finally-- a fully open, wings spread Monarch. Can't see the blooms--it is covering them. I was, literally, inches away. Glad she did not mind too much. Gita YEAH!!! A great way to start my October Folder. Gita |
