This past LongHot Texas Summer I got to practice my PhotoEntomology on several of the 'Drive About ShootOuts' with HiHoney. The interesting thing about being a PhotoEntomologist is that you never know when you are going to get to put your Skills to good use. The difference between me and Regular Entomologist...butterfly collectors who capture butterflies with a net then stick em with pins...is that I capture with NeatONikon then stick the stick in the puter. The Skill in all that?
Well, it's all about 'Being In The Right Place at The Right Time'.
Butterflies are self propelled flowers. ~R.H. Heinlein
and
...... are flowers that fly and all but sing:
And now from having ridden out desire
They lie closed over in the wind and cling
Where wheels have freshly sliced the April mire

Love the little yellow fellow on the lantana. Someday I WILL have a camera worthy of shooting these little creatures. Until then, I'll just have to admire yours!
Butterfly, butterfly, wait for me don't fly away. Two other bloggers have featured butterflies on the Thursday Song Theme,
but me, like Kathy, have yet to take a good photo of htem. Thanks.
I love Butterflies. My favorite one is the frist one.

Wonderful shots and I love the self-propelled flowers quote!
Wow, great shots. I love the two butterflies together.
Excellent shots. Butterflies are gorgeous subjects. I don't see too many butterflies in Vegas, but I know they are here somewhere.
Ohhh, that first one is awesome! We're starting to get monarchs flying in around here...I hope to catch a few on film before they keep migrating.
This is awesome!! Love your shots!
