In this picture I actually managed to catch it with its little sipper in the flower. COOL!
I thought taking photos of ferrets was hard. Butterflies are worse! One flick and they practically vanish from the view finder. LOL This little one was toying with me, coming in REAL close and settling just long enough for the camera to adjust and then flitting off. Cheeky devil! I didn't get a good shot of its beautiful patterns on the tops of the wings. But the undersides are pretty interesting, too. If you So I'm uploading the two best images I got while chasing the pretty around the yard with the camera. :-D That's Cuban jute flowers the butterfly is sampling. Apparently they're quite popular dining spots as I've seen a lot of butterflies out there when the weather is clear.
Please do NOT use this as stock photography. If you wish to use my photos, please ASK and get permission FIRST.
