Great to see you !
Variegated Fritillary ( Euptoieta claudia ) -
1st of this year -2021-
Usually land on a flower and stay put -
Enjoying a feast -
Not this one -
This flutterby went from flower to flower -
Sometimes landing -
At times - not -
Still did my usual 'butterfly hunt mode' -
Don't follow them -
All of them are faster than us -
Observe the flowers they land on -
Plant yourself nearby -
They return -
At times you can get bunches of shots from one butterfly & a flower -
Without moving the camera much -
My camera has the option of totally turning off any sounds -
Though I know of cameras where it can only be turned down -
Have always thought the designer of 'not turning off sound' -
Didn't know the first thing about butterflies, wading birds, etc. -
Shall we hold classes for them ?

The White Ash tree ..
- against a North Carolina sky
- of light blue
- with 'white puffy thingys'
- called that by a friend across the pond
- gradually green turns to Fall colors
- except those that rain down to the Earth
- a Wise Peaceful Soul
- we talk daily

Bracts of a White Dogwood .. the flowers are in the center - small green ones when open ..
The flowering dogwood (Cornus florida) and its inflorescence are the state tree and the state flower respectively for the U.S. Commonwealth of Virginia. It is also the state tree of Missouri and the state flower of North Carolina,
