I'm not sufficiently knowledgeable to say if 50 is a lot or not but it does sound it, so congrats! A nice shot anyway!

Pam J club has replied to Andy Rodker club
Thankyou Andy.

Andy... its an achievement for me. I have worked hard to make this place butterfly and bird friendly. Its also about training your own brain to "see" not just "look". Photography is a very big tool in that.

How very true! When we took up photography, now many years ago, it was as though a whole new world opened up to us.

How on earth did you manage to see that amongst the grasses? I can imagine you crawling through the undergrowth like some female David Attenborough. Great catch, Pam.

Too many ticks here for the crawlung bit.. but stalking yes !!! .Also as I said to Andy above .... Its also about training your own brain to "see" not just "look". Photography is a very big tool in that.

Excellent photo. The near monochrome overall appearance with the touch of bright green adds to the beauty of the photograph, I think.

Great portrait. I'll bet you had some difficulty spotting the brown butterfly among the brown pine needles as it fluttered around.

Wow, if only I could see so many butterflies! I must get flowers in my garden that attract more of them!

Pam J club has replied to Valfal
Thankyou Val !

I can grow very little here.. it dies in the heat. The False Sunflowers are native 'weeds" and survive and seed themselves from the wilderness around. The Lantana loves the heat... and the Zinnia's cope mostly !

What an excellent capture of this hard-to-see butterfly! Very pretty...I saw a little blue one the other day and followed it around until it landed. Then I stared and admired it before leaving it to rest. Now, had I had my camera with me it would have just giggled evilly in my general direction and left the scene! :D
