My first sighting of a Painted Lady Butterfly this year was a few days ago and a very brief side angle view only.
It then disappeared and was not seen again.
I was rewarded subsequently with this lovely specimen below that posed very nicely for me.
Stellar shots, Roy! I haven't seen too many butterflies this year. I'm loving your header picture! XO
ReplyDeleteLovely Roy, i've yet to see one this year!
ReplyDeleteThose are great shots!
ReplyDeleteI've only seen one this year, rather sad about that.
A lovely butterfly to see Roy, and you've captured some beautiful images...you did well to get a 'poser'!
ReplyDeleteI saw my first of the year about four hours ago, sadly, it decided not to hang around for a photo session!!...[;o(
Thanks Trevor.
DeleteNo Painted Ladies so far for me but lots more butterflies in Suffolk. Much more rural here though.
ReplyDeleteThere are a few reported now D.
DeleteHei Roy! Aivan upeat kuvat ohdakeperhosesta. Sillä on niin kauniit siivet ulkopuolelta.
ReplyDeleteKiitoksia Anne.
DeleteNice set of pictures of the Painted Lady, I have not seen many of these this year.
ReplyDeleteThanks Lyn. Thats probably my lot for this year as well.
DeleteTerrific images! Their underwings are so lovely, although not as striking as the above view.
ReplyDeleteThanks Wilma.
DeleteHi Nick,
ReplyDeleteWOW, impressive shots of the Painted lady, always a great catch!
Thanks for you kind visit, I am always on the run... it keeps my mind busy!
I saw you previously posted a great dragon...
Thanks Noushka.
DeleteHey Roy... Your Painted Lady shots are gorgeous. Lovely butterfly unfortunately the ones I see here are on the cedar shingles on the house, why I don't know. When you open the door they fly off :).
