Backyard Visitors

I know these probably look like visitors that you'd see in the springtime but I promise, I just took these photos yesterday.
They're beautiful to see no matter what time of year it is.

This is what they came for.

Can you see the bee & the butterfly on the one limb - so cute.




Hopefully they'll stick around for a while. They make sitting out back a lot more enjoyable.

Gorgeous photograpy!!! I love butterflies and butterfly bushes. As a newbie gardener, I brought home my first butterfly weed, and was appalled that days .later it had a worm on it, eating all the foliage.......I evicted him, only to learn that's what it's for! Since then I've learned more about butterfly weed and butterfly bushes....I love them, and their tasty to larvae leaves.
