Thistle with a visitor... Have put this is in the 'Butterflies' section. Not really sure what it is to be honest, but it has to be a butterfly because it's daylight, doesn't it?
Yes, it's a butterfly, a golden skipper. Fantastic lighting and clarity on this one! I like how you capture the thistle on the diagonal. Really nice one.
Thanks Constance for yet again identifying something for me. As for the angle of the thistle, the Golden Skipper must be a lot heavier than it looks as the thistle was vertical before it landed...
You really did a good job on this one, the details, and color are spot on. They are so small, and be pretty darn quick but you handled this very well, kudos! tigs=^..^=
