Bit windy but when the Sun came out managed to get photos of Holly Blue and Green veined white butterflies in the garden and a bonus Dark-edged Bee fly photobombing

A monarch butterfly hangs with her orange, black, and white wings closed. Behind her, the changing monarch chrysalis (it is becoming bluish as the wings inside become more visible)
A new butterfly warms its wings in the sunlight on my fingertip as I try to release her in my back garden
A monarch butterfly, with its wings opened, rests on my finger
A monarch butterfly rests in the two-toned pink blooms of a garden phlox. Her proboscis unfurled and curled when she came in contact with the flowers
Our first beautiful girl was released this morning
Good luck on your journey, Queen Peppermint Patty LaBelle

This Monarch butterfly took off from the zinnia during a gust of wind and I just happened to snap this shot.

A Zeba Longwing, black with yellow stripes, holds to the side of a red Pentas flower that has many blooms, which stands out against a background blur of green vegetation.

A realistic painting of a black butterfly with cream/red/blue markings, in wood frame. The piece is sitting on a distressed white table. There are hints of wood tone showing throughout the white surface, which you can also see behind the butterfly. This helps to indicate that the insect has been painted on a clear glass surface, and looks like it's floating in the middle of the frame.
Giant swallowtail in a walnut frame 🖤

A Small Tortoiseshell butterfly sat on the cupped blue flowers of a grape hyacinth. The butterfly is predominantly an orangey-red. Its wings are wide open and across the top edge are black + white + yellow stripes. The edges of the wings are scalloped and have small blue dots all around the edge, with a black trim around the blue
#BlueSkyMonday #blue #EastCoastKin #butterfies #garden #flowers #Bloomscrolling Woohoo! A Small Tortoiseshell butterfly in the garden today. Just love how the blue of the Grape Hyacinth accentuates the small blue dots on the butterfly.
