I like...
the comparison of the butterfly to a flower's bloom; which is something that they mimic, as a camouflage. I can see, in mind's eye, the butterfly winging it's way amongst the flowers and delighting you. Nice job in bringing the thought to view. ~ Geez.

Thank you Geez! I was fortunate to get a great pic of this creature, but it took about a dozen shots to get one I liked. Hope you are well!

Thank you...
for the well wishes of good health. I'm good as can be expected. I have used and abused my body terribly in my 73 yrs. of life, so all things considered, I feel lucky to be in as good shape as I am. ~ Geez.

Butterflies
are mystical creatures. It's a wonder how they get from one place to another with such erratic flight characteristics, but they certainly have managed for eons.
