I was working inside this afternoon when I saw movement out my window. On the bushes down by the pond were several large butterflies gathering pollen. I headed downstairs, grabbed the camera and went outside to take a look. I only got a few shots before they were off to check out other plants. I got down on the ground looking up to get this shot before this not quite symmetrical butterfly flitted off into the wind. He seems to have a few war wounds and if you've seen other shots against this flower, you'll notice the large wing span. I wish he had stayed around a bit longer but was glad to have had the opportunity to see him up close before he left.
