20170920 2160 SERIES - Painted Lady.jpg

Our Yard

My final posting of Painted Ladies for this Fall. Two images of painted ladies with wings-full out soaking up the early morning sun. I saw my last Painted Lady on October 18.

Top Image: One of about six Painted Ladies warming up in the sun on some Spruce branches.


This one is soaking up the sun perched on a Zinnia flower.
