Description

You will need to be creative. Just under the branch there is a blob of dried foliage . Near the top of that I can see the left wing with yellow and the black markings. As it flew away, it was unmistakably the WTS. Beautiful! Sorry I didn’t use the burst feature. Hopefully I can get partial credit

You'd think they could stop moving for just one picture! He was feeding on lantana.

I don’t know if this growth on my salvia is a bug or a plant. Attached with white “hairs” that almost look like tight petals before a daisy blooms.
