    Butterflies that were dancing all around the Zinnias. Took me quite a peaceful while just watching their delightful beauty, before I could get the pic.

    We have a lack of butterflies here this year. The only ones I have seen are Cabbage whites and even they are few and far between.

    Those are pretty! Well caught. We've got butterflies, and it seems there are more of them in our garden this year, and a wider variety too. Seemed I should say, because the horrible weather we've had over the last few weeks might have chased them away.

    Lilthisnthat. Butterflies dancing on the zinnias amazing detail of butterflies. They are so quick glittering about it’s tough to get a good clear pic.
    This pic from today . These two messing around and their wings are a bit tattered . 4EAE6D8B-EF77-4A31-80A0-E3CE1B6B2A1C.jpeg
