Rare Visitor

Dina Yellow Butterfly on Meyer Lemon
This morning a Dina Yellow male butterfly joined me for breakfast. See how he doesn't have the dark fore-wing tip of the female?  It's times like these that I adore the zoom on my camera, as it allows me to see all the little details while not disturbing him from his rest.  It is rather windy today with the big ever green branches arching in the winds.  Likely my new friend needed a break.  How about you?

Beautiful picture! I can use a break from this wind too, it's been blowing for days here. The internet is still in and out.

Beautiful - what is the zoom on your camera?
