I seen the Dove on a Light Pole
Wiki
The Poop On Doves...
This species' call is a distinctive, plaintive cooOOoo-woo-woo-woooo, uttered by males to attract females, and may be mistaken for the call of an owl at first. (Close up, a grating or throat-rattling sound may be heard preceding the first coo.) Other sounds include a nest call (cooOOoo) by paired males to attract their mates to the nest sites, a greeting call (a soft ork) by males upon rejoining their mates, and an alarm call (a short roo-oo) by either male or female when threatened. In flight, the wings make a fluttery whistling sound that is hard to hear. The wing whistle is much louder and more noticeable upon take-off and landing.[6]

Acraea terpsicore, the tawny coster,[1] is a small, 53–64 millimetres (2.1–2.5 in), leathery, winged butterfly which is common in grassland and scrub habitats. It belongs to the Nymphalidae or brush-footed butterfly family. It has a weak fluttery flight. It is avoided by most insect predators. This species and the yellow coster (Acraea issoria) are the only two Indian representatives of the predominantly African tribe Acraeini.[2] It is found in India, Sri Lanka to Myanmar, Thailand, Laos, Cambodia, and Vietnam.[
Tufted Titmouse feeding from a lady's hand in Central Park, NYC.
Tufted Titmice look large among the small birds that come to feeders, an impression that comes from their large head and eye, thick neck, and full bodies. The pointed crest and stout bill help identify titmice even in silhouette.
Soft silvery gray above and white below, with a rusty or peach-colored wash down the flanks. A black patch just above the bill makes the bird look snub-nosed.
Tufted Titmice are acrobatic foragers, if a bit slower and more methodical than chickadees. They often flock with chickadees, nuthatches, and woodpeckers and are regular visitors to feeders, where they are assertive over smaller birds. Their flight tends to be fluttery but level rather than undulating.

Butterflies in the stomach is the physical sensation in humans of a "fluttery" feeling in the stomach, caused by a reduction of blood flow to the organ. This is as a result of the release of adrenaline in the fight-or-flight response, which causes increased heart rate and blood pressure, consequently sending more blood to the muscles. It can be a symptom of social anxiety disorder. The symptom of this phenomenon is usually experienced prior to attempting to partake in something critical.

A pleasant walk on the Spit in the Meuse between Venlo and Blerick (www.flickr.com/photos/87453322@N00/48671732162/in/photoli...). It's pretty dry here already early in the season but Trefoil's in full flower. Not so many insects. I did see some Common Blues, and this fluttery male pausing for nutrients caught Olymp's attention.
In the NW GA mountains last month. Swallowtails were going nuts over this patch of wildflowers in filtered light at the edge of the road - let me know if you have an ID for them. Tiger swallowtails have mostly wrapped up but I had a black female in the yard a couple of days ago. It was a rainy night in Georgia with 2" and still coming down.
Happy Fluttery Friday!
Regal Fritillary butterflies are considered a species of special concern in Minnesota and can be difficult to find outside of the western portion of the state. In 2016, Three Rivers Park District reintroduced them to Crow-Hassan Park Reserve near St. Michael, MN. I was finally able to locate and photograph a few today and this is only the 2nd time I have ever seen them. They are almost the size of a Monarch but just a tad smaller and have a uniquely fluttery flight that reminds me more of a moth. They're strikingly beautiful from both above and below so I'll try to share some additional photos soon. I spent a couple of hours chasing them back and forth because they don't seem to land on anything very often. Right after I had just about given up, I spotted a few visiting bright orange Butterfly Weed. There is an interesting podcast episode about the efforts to reintroduces these butterflies here: thewanderingnaturalist.libsyn.com/website/episode-27-50-y... and the section on Regal Fritillaries starts at the 13:00 minute mark. Hennepin County, MN 07/10/21
I keep thinking I'm out of Monarchs to post and then I find one I never have-at least I searched tags and didn't find it under Monarch or butterfly so I'm assuming I haven't
I'm off to visit Mon@rch and won't be back til Sunday-have a great weekend everyone :D
Tawny Coster (Acraea vialoe) (වියෝලා) Very common butterfly in low country and found all over the Island. Can be seen inscrubby grasslands, gardens. Dosal basking species. Flight is weak and fluttery. Host plant is Dal-batu (Passiflora foetida) and belongs Nymphalidae family.
Living in the Southern Hemisphere I always feel a little bit weird about our celebrations such as Easter. We are smack bang in the middle of Autumn...heading into the coldest time of the year, yet Easter is all about spring and new life. Soon there will be minimal flowers blooming in my garden, I can already see they are well and truly on the decline.
Anyway, here is the obligatory topsy turvy Easter picture...I'm wearing some of the spoils from my recent visit to C88, the Fae Dress by Roslyn, Rosie Hair by Lamb and this adorable Bunny Basket by Kotte. The butterflies are an old favourite of mine, the "Fluttery Friends" by Quills and Curiosities and also the Summer Garden Wreath by LODE.
I hope everyone is having a nice quite weekend doing what they love. Not being religious myself, Good Friday is a nice quiet day where I stay at home, enjoy the company of my family and make the most of the last bit of sun before winter rolls in.

A dragonfly is an insect belonging to the order Odonata, suborder Anisoptera (from Greek ανισος anisos "uneven" + πτερος pteros, "wings", because the hindwing is broader than the forewing). Adult dragonflies are characterized by large multifaceted eyes, two pairs of strong transparent wings, sometimes with coloured patches, and an elongated body. Dragonflies can be mistaken for the related group, damselflies (Zygoptera), which are similar in structure though usually lighter in build; however, the wings of most dragonflies are held flat and away from the body, while damselflies hold the wings folded at rest, along or above the abdomen. Dragonflies are agile fliers while damselflies have a weaker, fluttery flight. Many dragonflies have brilliant iridescent or metallic colours produced by structural coloration, making them conspicuous in flight. An adult dragonfly eye has nearly 24,000 ommatidia.

I spent about two hours trying two photograph this balanced on a stick in my pond. I had to give up in the end but may have another go later. I'm bloody freezing and my clothes are soggy :v
Decided to have a full day of butterfly hunting today along the Kingsands and Cawsands coastal path, talk about a labour of love with these fluttery beauties as they never stay still long enough. I saw plenty of whites, peacocks, admirals and more but nothing new. then I decided to go of piste into the woodlands of the main coastal path and low and behold a silver washed fritillary butterfly, I believe the Fritillary can be found mainly in woodlands
Not having ever captured a silver washed before I was to say the least very pleased.. This was the best shot I could get on the ground as it refused to pose anywhere else for me which was a pity . So all in all not a totally wasted day in the blistering heat.
Thanks for looking

Aspens are also known as Quaking Aspens due to their fluttery leaves. But these short aspens appear to me to be dancing, perhaps in excitement for their bright new yellow leaves?
A beautiful bird the Wren with a huge voice for its tiny size. One of the few birds that can sing on an inhale and exhale. They can be so hard to photograph though - tiny, fluttery and often deep in bushes and vegetation. Especially in the winter when they’re not calling during mating time. Chuffed to get a clean shot of this one!

The butterfly exudes an oily and smelly yellow liquid when handled and is unpalatable to birds and most insects. They are well protected and have a slow and weak flight, frequently visiting flowers and are easily netted. There are no mimics in India.

This sweet little morning..i mean mourning... dove has joined the blue jays , squirrels, chickadees and sparrows for sunflower seeds on my deck rail...Isn't she (he) so soft and pretty?? I love their squeaky sound when they fly away. (In flight, the wings make a fluttery whistling sound, hard to hear. The wing whistle is much louder and more noticeable upon take-off and landing.(Wikipedia))

Dragonflies are predators, both in their aquatic larval stage, when they are known as nymphs or naiads, and as adults. Several years of their life are spent as a nymph living in freshwater; the adults may be on the wing for just a few days or weeks. They are fast agile fliers, sometimes migrating across oceans, and are often but not always found near water
When going round to mend my grandson's scooter my daughter (who hates fluttery insects) spotted this beauty on her geraniums in the front garden. As luck would have it I was coming back from a quick walk in the forest and had the camera in the car. These moths are quite common immigrants but this is the first I've seen this year.
There's a little more detail viewed large.

The name Melanis refers to the melanic pigment of the black scales which cover the distinctively shaped wings of all members of this genus. Many Melanis species are marked with orange borders on the hindwings, and / or similarly coloured diagonal bands on the forewings. In some species the apex of the forewings is orange, and in others there are large red spots near the base of the wings.
There are 27 known members in the genus. The majority of species are found in the Andes mountains, or in the Amazonian lowlands.
Melanis electron occurs as 7 named subspecies found variously from Belize to Peru and Brazil.
The butterflies have a slow fluttery flight typical of aposematic species, drifting gracefully above the vegetation at a height of about 1-2m above ground level. Males can sometimes be found imbibing mineralised moisture from damp ground.

As gorgeous, vapory, silent hues cover the evening sky,
As softness, fulness, rest, suffuse the frame, like freshier, balmier air,
As the days take on a mellower light, and the apple at last hangs
really finish'd and indolent-ripe on the tree,
Then for the teeming quietest, happiest days of all!
The brooding and blissful halcyon days!
