Have a view of my daily photos or photos from my past. We all need to document the world around us visually. What I see is mostly what you get.

Monarch Surprise........
I went out to the garden with my camera as I could see the butterfly out there fluttering on some zinnias. I really didn't think I would get one picture but I did. The monarchs are probably not going to migrate through here this year as they haven't for three years now. They seem to be following the Missouri River now as they head to Mexico. I would wonder if the stray monarchs don't somehow join up with the migration some time along their way south. I was glad the butterfly landed on one of the better looking flowers.

Thank you for sharing this incredible photo! Have a nice day.
An obliging butterfly to land on one of your best flowers. The two together made a pretty picture.
