He/she wasn't the most cooperative subject, but I managed to get a couple of shots before he/she decided it was time to leave.

Thanks for looking

Thank you both. . .butterflys are great fun to shoot. We were down in Key West a few years back and had a great time at the Butterfly Conservancy. If you ever get the opportunity to go, do it!
