About once a year I see a common blue butterfly in the garden on the front lawn.
Here feeding and egg-laying on bird's foot trefoil. Sony A6000/sigma 105mm OS

If I had to pick one as my favourite one it would be the last.
But not by very much for the rest of them.
Really nice job on all images.


I am willing to learn and will listen to what other have to say.
But if I don't like it, never take offense to it.
It is just something that I may not like.
