    Thank you guys so much.
    That foto surprised me that it won. I enjoyed that butterfly's company on the day the foto was made. He came by to visit on what was the last active day for him until the Spring. I have not seen any more butterflies or moths since that foto was taken.
    Thanks again for the recognition, fellow members. :)
