White admiral butterfly on goldenrod. This is actually a focus stack of 10 images (taken during a macro photography workshop in Michigan a few years ago.)

Tiger swallowtail on coneflower in my back yard this past summer.

Can't go wrong with some monarchs nectaring on blazing star during migration. This is in a garden bed right next to my front door.

Btw if you like taking photos of butterflies, I suggest that you plant a native plant garden. Great way to have a photo studio right in your own yard!

A great set!

Hi Shutterbugs,
We are overjoyed to report the Monarch Caterpillars are devouring our Southern Milkweed plants.
Hopefully spot some Chrysalis soon.

Happy New Year.:-)
