The butterflies were very active the day I was at the Flutter Exhibit at the Cleveland Metroparks Zoo. It seemed to take forever to get one to land so I could get a shot. This one obliged just long enough for me to snap it.

Thanks for the comments, friends.

Jim, excellent capture. An idea for future trips to the Flutter Exhibit, if you would rub peanut butter (creamy - not chunky) all over your body, you will be amazed by what all you will attract. lol.

They are defiantly hard little suckers to photograph. But you nailed this one. I find they love super glue it really makes it easy to photograph. (Just Kidding)
