Great captures! My favorite is the butterfly shot. Love the colors and sharpness of the butterfly's body. My only wish is that you used slightly more depth of field so the entire wingspan was sharp.

Thanks Katie.:D
It was windy and I had to keep the shutter speed up...hence the shallow dof. Personally, I think the softness of the butterfly added to the overall look on this one. Not saying that I wouldn't like a nice sharp one at f/8 and a full wingspread!
Ric - Three very well done images. I like the Sparrow best, but the Monarch is well done too.
We had similar ideas about the GBH's ... I took this shot over the weekend. Although mine must not have been
"liquored up" like yours .... the tongue is not hanging out of my GBH's mouth.
I like your background better than mine.

I posted this in "Other Cool Shots" where it died from neglect. So I'll add it to this post where someone might actually see it.
