Butterfly la Blue

A colorful play in blue, with the Red-spotted Purple Butterfly. 

The photo above is of a Red-spotted Purple, but of course, with a little play in the colors.  I got some awesome shots of this beauty that clearly show its true colors and hope to share those soon. 

The butterfly came to visit while I sat inside the little oasis of green that I created on my front porch.  My winged friend liked the dog-bed cover hanging over the side rail.

I’m very tired as I write, but I must admit, I really like the photo that surprised me in blue, so I just had to share 😉

Until I can show you the Red-spotted Purple in all it’s glory, a quick scan of “Related Articles” tells me that I’m certainly not alone in my love for our flighty friends!  So if you’re interested, below are interesting links.  (It was hard to choose between all the links to folks writing about Butterflies).  Enjoy!

Thanks for visiting Dogkisses’s blog.

Note:  I also had another visitor to my ‘Green Healing’ garden the same day the Red-spotted Purple stopped by for the photo shoot.  A brand new, as in new-born, and very, very tiny lizard took its first crawl on a leaf in my favorite container of flowers.  I was truly in awe. 

Pop over to my other blog, Green Healing Notes, for a look.

Peace and Pass it On.
