I use to maybe 12+ years ago then just stopped.
I might have to start again. Nice gap filler when the
birds aren't out

Thanks!

Justin,
That first shot is very beautiful. I love how you've got so much detail in the male monarch in the foreground... and the image fades to a softer focus to a second butterfly in the background.

cheers,
bruce

Thank you all!

I've noticed over the last few days it seems to be less and less birds in my hot spots.

So it's time to look for other things I suppose. Although butterflies I'm sure will be
heading out too.
