After Watering

I am watering the new plants and seeds.
After I move my sprinkler I wait a few minutes.
I know the butterflies will come for water.
The Tawny Emperor is a favorite food of the Cardinals and the Wrens.
It hides well in my yard.
Our mulch is leaf mold compost.

    I wonder if each butterfly wing is unique like a finger print :-) Beautiful pics.

    Dear Chris,
    I wonder too...
    I do know in some species there are variations.
    Thanks! These are very pretty little butterflies.

    I vote for birds to leave Tawny Emporor alone. I hope they get their fill on your feeders.

    She is a pretty little thing.

    Dear Sprite,
    I keep telling all the birds there are other tasty bugs besides butterflies!
    She is pretty.
