Thanks Irish ! He is quite a poser, made my job taking his pic very easy !
Yes Sanbaz, this one has a soft spot in my heart.
Toto, I'm tickled you like it that much ! Truth is ,it's impossible to take a bad pic of something this pretty.
Wow Old gunner, didn't know you had them on occasion too, that's so cool !
Janey, you know this one has to be a favorite of mine, just look at that bright orange color...lol.

So glad you like it too Milky, it's a rare treat for me to see also !

Fab pict. Wonderful butterfly.

Thanks Lindak, I don't know who has the brighter shade of orange, the flower or the butterfly !

What a fantastic photo, the Monarch looks part of an exotic flower at first glance (or maybe Ive just had too much wine at the moment :-))

LOL...., works for me norfolk, got any of that wine left to share with a friend ?....:-D

It was all the wine tasting at the local produce show, I cant handle drink in the day time :-))

Oh well...., it was a nice thought ! I have to work tomorrow anyway..:-(

Fantastic Pic as ever Fl :)

Thanks Jacque, what a nice thing to say !

This would make a fab framed picture...blown up & on the wall. Just great.

Thanks Fluff, it would be nice to look at during the winter months, when I'm stuck inside .

Brilliant photo! it looks as though the monarchs wings are transparent and we are seeing the flower through them, beautiful :-))

I can see it too, now that you mention it Bornagain, that does look cool !

Great shot, Can't believe these little delicate wings fly from Brazil & mexico all the way up North America. Amazing hey.

Thanks Doon ! It certainly is amazing, I can just imagine how big a set of wings would have to be to get me that distance ! the word 'delicate' certainly wouldn't be an adjective they would be using to describe them...lol

Looks like he made a dramatic entrance in your garden.Beautiful!

Yes , Rhodea, it's hard for him to sneak into any garden with that beautiful bright coloring !

what a brilliant photo.

Thanks for your wonderful comment Yorkshire !
