This is a little butterfly that I found laying on the driveway when taking trash out. I suspect that the time for many of them among us may be getting shorter and shorter while others may winter in warmer climates with our hopes to return to us soon.

Nice work Gary. It is a shame these live short lives in the main.

Great shot Gary. I love the detail in the proboscis. Love the two projections that seem to protect the eyes too.

I agree Brenda. It's much more enjoyable to find them foraging on flowers than dearly departed.
