I'm moving kind of slow today after Michael and I worked at the property yesterday tearing down half the garden fence, pulling fence post, weeding and shredding...Then we fixed fence and put some fencing up at the end of the other half of the garden to protect the pumpkins from the deer. Yes our pumpkins are still growing, not sure they are going to be done by Halloween. Michael doesn't care, he doesn't like carving them, he's like his Dad and just wants to watch them grow. Any how I was outside this morning and saw a Monarch float by, yeah! Love Monarchs and we don't see many here so I grabbed the camera and went back outside...
Flower hopping...
Of course I always get side-tracked with other butterflies and critters, this is a bordered patch butterfly.
I followed the Monarch through the flowers, snapping photos here and there.
I sure hope he or she makes it to Mexico. So pretty!
Folded wing Skipper...
Then I saw this red dragonfly...it is a Variegated Meadowhawk Skimmer.
Then I spotted this Giant Orange Sulphur...I was tickled that it let me get close enough for a decent photo, normally they don't!
The Variegated Meadowhawk kept posing for me...
I told you I get side-tracked easily...go out after a Monarch and see so much more!!
Hope y'all are having a blessed Sunday!
