Yet another butterfly!

Considering that I’ve only seen one butterfly all summer long in our neighborhood, finding three at the Franciscan Monastery was like a real bonanza!

wow a very nice shot Indeed, it was a poor butterfly year here too. I saw very few. The seasons are also completely different: flowers appear too early or disappear too quickly, and it's the same story for insects. That's why it's nice to see such a beautiful photo. BV
