I Spy With My Compound Eye, Another Seablush, To Which I Will Fly!


Today I decided to stroll around our large meadow to see what had changed while I'd been to San Francisco. So many new flowers, as well as the last beautiful display to appreciate from the Buttercups and Houndstongue flowers. As I headed back to the house, I walked up the middle of the meadow so that I could enjoy the stunning pink show by the Seablush blossoms. I kept stopping to stare in wonder at how incredibly beautiful all the flowers were, and at one point I was scanning the flowers when my gaze stopped on this butterfly! I didn't waste a second and started taking pictures and creeping closer as I went. Then, quick as a flash, the butterfly was gone, but I had a very happy smile on my face because I was pretty sure I got some clear pictures! In fact, I got several winners, woo hoo!!! :D
