Thanks - I have other photos of paper daisies which I like, but yes, adding the feeding butterfly makes this one special.

Excellent shot, catching one sitting still is hard enough as it is.

Good shot, and this one is a male - - one black dot on each wing. The females have two dots on each wing.

Thanks! I tried to get a shot of another species of butterfly yesterday, but it wouldn't stop long enough to get focus lock.

Thanks - I guess you're confirming my hesitant identification on Flickr?

Thank you! Now that it's spring again, I'll have to go back to the Botanic Gardens and see if they butterflies have returned!
