Thank you! That is an eagle that is somewhat annoyed it felt like it needed to move. I say felt like because there is no way I was a) getting all that close to something with a beak and talons like that or b) going to hop out on those dubious pilings.
Oh my gosh! I'm utterly besotted with your pale green and yellow butterfly! It's so subtly beautiful! And the delicate fairy-flower plants seem to suit it perfectly. This is a lovely collection of photos.
Thank you! The green and yellow butterfly would not settle for more than a second, so I think I'm lucky to get even those slightly blurry shots. I'll probably try again tomorrow or Saturday. (Fingers crossed there will be more...)
You photos are very impressive, especially so close-up, whether you're physically close or telephotoing in. Good luck for more static flutterby activity and lekker photos!
