Insect Alley, cont.







The first picture is of the little butterfly I don't ever remember seeing. This is the color it was. It is not your color off on your monitor. I have seen the little white ones and the little yellow ones all my life, and the teeny, tiny silver ones that are even smaller than this. I just don't remember ever seeing one this orangy-yellow with the black dots. Of course, I am so forgetful that it is possible I have seen one. Anyway, this is one of two pictures I got of him--the other is not even as good as this.

Then there were the monarchs. I just could not make up my mind which others to post of them. So I just chose some of my favorites. I hope it is not overkill for you.

  1. Nice Monarch captures. And that other little guy is very pretty - but we don't know who it is, is that right?

  5. No overkill in my opinion. Beautiful shots! I think we probably pay more attention to things than we did before we blogged.

  6. Your monarch photos are wonderful...post as many as you want! We enjoy them all! That first little butterfly is very pretty and I think I have seen them before, but I'm terrible with butterfly names and don't even try most of the time. I'm heading to ebay and look for a guide book for them.
