I walked with my camera today — not something I do all that frequently these days. I shot a bit, and then, having walked nearly five miles, packed up the camera and started my walk home. But then I heard this guy say, “Um. Hello? What about me?” and the sweet thing then opened its wings for me.
Show off.

Beautiful, Patty. I’ve been seeing them a lot lately! One even landed on my foot the other day, but I didn’t have my camera. It felt magical!
Yes, Susan, I agree … a lot more around at the moment. I’ve seen some on our ivy … along with tons of bees! I’m always happy to see both!
