Sunflower & a Flutterby

Mustanger Loc: Grants Pass, Oregon USA
 
I have only this one small Sunflower in a pot this year. It popped open today & I had to take a pic in celebration. Just as I snapped I was aware of movement on the left side of the pic. This little Moth had set down just in time to be enshrined for posterity.

Now I have to say the Butterfly pic is staged! I found the expired Tiger Swallowtail in my driveway earlier. I thought to see how well it would do on a couple bushes and have an opportunity to try different settings with my new lens the EF 70-300IS II USM nano. I love this lens and it's capabilities on my Rebel T8i Canon. This butterfly is shot from 8 feet away sitting in my chair in my backyard.
