This late Fritilliary was out visiting my garden to day. Not many of them around at this time of year. Used the zoom lens to get as close up as I could. He was very nervous and flew off every time I moved.

Love this picture - we've had fewer butterflies this year, although we do grow specific plants to attract them. Think the very wet Summer did for them! Our best shot was of a Comma on the Sedums.

Lovely. I've been missing butterflies, but I do have a couple large winged beings that flit about in the house plants. Seem harmless, not moths.
