Aww...how cute! ...and great macro shot, too.
At first I was wondering how you had so much in bloom this time of year, then I noticed ( and remembered) you are in Kissimmee, Florida. That explains a lot. By the way, I don't even where long johns most winters...if any, but if you get up to PA to see the spring ephemerals and have to wear them, I won't say a thing. I guess it is all what you are used to...and remember the body adapts. ![]()

I've been going out when it is sunny and warmer as that is when I see the activity...when it is colder, I rarely see anything except, perhaps, a sluggish bumblebee clinging to the underside of a flower. I'll have to learn to time things just right. ![]() Quote:

Many butterflies come back to the same spot to roost nightly. For instance my hairstreaks roost in the bamboo every night, yes I have some ![]() |
