I had a lovely visitor in my garden over the weekend!
This handsome fella is a Gulf Fritillary and is native to the southern parts of the US. I am happy to be a stopover as he makes his way back home to Florida.
I love that he didn’t seem to mind me and my camera too much.
And I hope that this makes you as happy as it did me.
Love, Kelly
Stunning! It is almost like you and Gulf Fritillary were communicating. She posing so you could get up close and personal. She knowing she would bring so much joy to you and your followers. Strange, but I almost feel like she would just land on your patio table and share a cup of coffee/nectar with you for a morning chat. Thank you for capturing her beauty and sharing her with us. Particularly beautiful to open to these photos after a long night of thunder, lightening, rain downpours and a dog who is terrorized by thunder and slept on our faces panting all night.
Thank you so much Becky. It makes my heart happy to know that these photos brought a little sunshine to your life. xoxo
So beautifully captured! The last photo is also pure magic. Thank you so much for sharing this amazing experience!!
