Monarchs love to be moving.

That's a really nice shot! It's nice to be rewarded for your persistance!

It's a lovely photo. The colors are pitch perfect.

I put my face close to the Russian Sage trying to get the perfect bee shot, but still have not succeeded. The bushes are loaded with bees, and fortunately they don't pay any attention to me, but they are quick little buggers. My pictures are always blurry. 🐝🐝
