Monarch Butterfly

This beautiful monarch was hanging out on the outside of our fence this afternoon. It was so cooperative! Slowly fluttering its wings so that I could get some great shots.

I couldn't resist cropping this one to show the amazing detail of the butterfly's body. It is covered in delicate fur!

Beautiful! The wings remind me of stained glass.

Thanks, John! I couldn't believe how lucky I was to find the butterfly just hanging out on my fence.
