Butterflies, Elephant Ears, and a New Store

I've been watching butterflies scurrying around a certain set of bushes in my back yard for several days now. I finally decided to go out and TRY to get some pictures of them.
Now my camera is not made for catching this type of photo but I feel I got some good ones to share.
First my Yellow Friend, his marking were just fantastic

This picture does not do him justice.

Next is my subtle green friend

Not so much at first glance, but look closely at the green markings on the lower portion of his wings. My favorite color and in a great shade of sage.

These little guys did not want to be photographed and moved from flower to flower quite quickly.

Now for my elephant ears. With all the rain and humidity we've had this year, My elephant ears are in elephant ear heaven. I snapped this pic and then put my hand on one of them for perspective.


I told you, they are loving this weather

Now for the great new store and Friend.

Hi Margo,
Love the butterfly pictures. Your camera did OK. The green color is my favorite green.

OMG, your elephant ears are the biggest I've seen.
