Still bitterly cold even though there was sunshine today, I tried going out to get some "sunny" pics and never made it past the porch!!! lol! The wind was just a little too brisk for me, so back to the blankey looking thru archives of sunnier days, & found this guy. It was from a couple of years ago, but I still remember what a beautiful day it was when I saw this Monarch loving the Asters which bloom wildly all over the place. The sun was just right for me to get under him & get the flowers through his wings, he was more than cooperative or I never could've gotten a decent shot! ;)
