Painted Ladies at Lake Carneros

The numbers of Painted Ladies have risen this year, and the migration has started in earnest in Southern California. Lake Carneros is in Goleta and I followed this shy butterfly until the honey bee chased her off! Smaller than monarchs but equally beautiful in their coloring! A happy sign of spring!

I went out and shot the Painted Ladies today, but in all humility, your photos are far superior to mine. I have a greater appreciation for how excellent your photos are. Bravo!!!

I don’t know about that, Brent! I’m in awe of your surfing photos and just finished viewing your amazing super bloom photos! You’ve got a great photographer’s eye! Thanks for checking in!
