Riktiga konstverk – igen! Vilken vacker blomma och den lilla fjärilen är ju ett konstverk i sig med sina mönstrade vingar och “ögonen” längst ned. Har nog aldrig sett en sådan fjäril förut.
The flower is one of the Osteospermums, sometimes called African or Cape Daisies. I have several plants in my garden, white and purple, but i have never caught a butterfly in one (yet!) 😉 I did catch a tiny white spider in one once!
Did you see the ‘other’ side of the butterfly’s wing? A beautiful blue! 🙂
Thank you very much. I do appreciate that you gave the flower its name. They are really beautiful! I missed the “other” side of the wing. It was so tiny and moving very fast. I’m glad I got at least some picture of it. Hopefully it will come back so I get another chance 😁
Så vackert! Fjärilar är så vackra men attans så svåra att fota. Du har lyckats superbra. Dessutom ljuvlig färg på blomman (säger en rosa-fantast 😉 ) Snyggt!!
Today I had a visitor among my flowers. It was very small.
Almost as tiny as a thumbnail.

Fjärilar är alltid roligt att komma nära med kameran, och här har du ju fått fina bilder.

I så fall föredrar jag + 10, och regn, som det är här nu 15:17.

+18 till +21 är alldeles lagom för mig. Det brukar det ju kunna vara i juli.

Beautiful flower and butterfly. But I don’t know what sort it is I’m afraid. I think it must be local to the Med. or N Africa/Malta.

Så liten och så vacker. Snällt att den ställde upp som motiv 🙂 Blomman blev ännu vackrare med några droppar som smycken. Jättefina bilder som vanligt!
