I think your lovely butterfly knew you had your camera with you and decided to pose for you. He/she certainly looks very pretty against the purple of your flowers.

Yes great shots Sherry. It must have been asleep. How close were you? It doesn't seem disturbed at all.

kuntrygal...I was just a couple feet away. I think butterflys have such good hearing that when I try to get close to a Monarch, etc. they fly away....the trick is to hold still and that is hard when you have 2 dogs running around.
Sherry
Thank you everyone..
