They can sense when you are nearby with a camera and fly away!

Yes they do, but sometimes they are so taken with drinking nectar you get a little bit of a chance 🙂

Butterflies are my favorite (as evidence from my logo, lol)! But there’s nothing to compare with the real things.

The more butterflies I see, the more I’m amazed by their variety and beauty. Add in the moths, and you certainly could spend all of your time just with them. One of the nice things about photographing butterflies is that we usually get to include a nice flower or two — double the fun!

You do get double the fun with the flowers, too! There appears to be a lot of butterflies fluttering in and out of the garden of late, which is really quite lovely to see 🙂
