Beautiful Butterfly

Butterflies go fluttering by On colored wings that catch the eye. On wings of orange, and silvery blue, On wings of golden yellow, too. Butterflies float in the air, Making their homes most anywhere: The rainforest, field, and prairie land, On mountaintops, and desert sand. If winter brings the cold and snow, To warmer climates, off they go! Returning home the following spring, Beautiful butterflies on the wing!

Wow. Love the poem. Where did you get that? And, would you look at the detail in the center of that flower? Pollen laying all the place. What a keeper.

Wow! What a beautiful capture! I haven't been on Caedes for awhile so I was just browsing the new images and this one just jumped off the page. This is just a great great shot - such clarity and so sharp! Beautiful!

What a great picture. Whenever I try to capture a butterfly it seems it knows I am trying and flies before I can snap the shutter. I love the bright red flower. Karl :o)
