They won't be here much longer!
Moving away for a moment from the outer banks to Nikki Sue's favorite lantana patch in her front yard. The butterflies won't be with us much longer, so I felt like I needed to get out and grab a few more before they were gone.
Caught this one licking its chops after a sweet snack.  Then three of these guys...

Beautiful pictures! I agree with everyone about the second one being the best. But I would be happy to capture one like any of them!

First of all I love love butterflies, and these photos are beautiful. I can't decide which I like better. The second or fourth.

Beautiful shots Mike, espcially the second and last one. Makes me wonder though, Where do butterflies go in winter?
Michael
