This is a very tiny 'Skipper' butterfly. I set my finger behind it to show just how tiny it is. When you have one or more butterfly bushes in your yard, they will attract all kinds of butterflies!

Please tell me what brand and model of camera you have! That is the best closeup shot I have seen in years. I am looking for a camera that will deliver that fine a close-up shot.
What is a butterfly bush?
What a great photo. I never seem to have the camera nearby when I want to take a 'surprise moment'. I don't think I've seen such a tiny butterfly. Is that the only colour that little butterfly comes in?
C U T E ! ! ! He has such big EYES, too! Yes, I ,too, would like to know what kind of camera you used.
Have you ever seen a huge solid black BUMBLE BEE?
I saw my first in my garden on my Mexican Petunia
flowers this week. It busily went about it's business, not bothering me one foot away. It is the first I've ever seen. God Bless.
