First butterfly capture of the season

I think this is the first butterfly I have photographed this season.  He stuck around just long enough for me to get two or three shots.

FYI,  we will be getting Lorelei after a bit if nothing happens, so my blogging will probably be nonexistent for a few days.

You were lucky to get such a nice shot of this pretty butterfly. A visit of Lorelei is always worth holding up the posting effort! :-)

Lovely shot! We have Sydney on Fridays, and nothing gets done here either that doesn't involve the princess. Enjoy your visit with Lorelei!
