Two pairs of "Argynnis paphia" butterflies feeding on a flower in summer sunny day

Hi there,

I recently spotted this pair of dahlias at a local park. What caught my attention were the subtle colour variations within the petals.

Thank you for taking the time to view and for leaving me a comment. I do love hearing from you!

Have a wonderful day and week ahead!

For Macro Mondays - Pair

Paare gibt es genug, große und kleine, dicke und dünne, ich habe mich für ein Paar Ohringe entschieden die ich gerne trage, dazu gibt es noch einen Anhänger in der der Größe wie die Ohrringe sind. Liebe Freunde, Danke für Euren Besuch, ein Kommentar und Stern ist auch willkommen.

Ich wünsche Euch einen guten Tag und eine entspannte Woche, liebe Freunde. Seid achtsam und bleibt gesund!

There are enough pairs, big and small, thick and thin, I have chosen a pair of earrings that I like to wear, plus a pendant in the same size as the earrings are. Dear friends, thank you for visiting, a comment and star is also welcome.

I wish you a good day and a relaxing week, dear friends. Be mindful and stay healthy!

Les paires sont suffisantes, grandes et petites, épaisses et fines, j'ai choisi une paire de boucles d'oreilles que j'aime porter, de plus il y a un pendentif de la même taille que les boucles d'oreilles. Chers amis, merci de votre visite, un commentaire et une étoile sont également les bienvenus.

Passez une bonne journée et une semaine de détente, chers amis. Soyez attentifs et restez en bonne santé !

I went to the Sandhill Crane Festival in Fairbanks, Alaska and was pleasantly surprised. I was expecting four days of rain but we had two nice afternoons of some sunshine otherwise it would have been disappointing for photograhy! One of the rainy evenings I was thrilled to see hundreds if not more than a thousand cranes arrive to Creamer's Field in Fairbanks. Here I've captured two cranes coming in to one of the fields to eat and rest for a bit on their migration south.

Few more day before I put my waterlilies in the pond.

Happy Sunday!

This pair of green-winged teal were heading off into the sunset together.

Fullerton Arboretum

This image took one hour waiting for this moment. The temperature was high and these butterflies are fast. I got lucky to capture two in one image.

Taken through the window. Greenfinches have been absent from our garden for many years so it was nice to see this pair enjoying the sunflower seeds I put out.

This pair is well practiced in flying in formation. It's hard to see from this photo but they were inches apart and perfectly synchronized in their wing movement. Beautiful to watch.

Courting Robins who I'm delighted to say look like they are going to nest in my garden, fingers crossed.

Mottled Ducks are quite common in Florida. They sometimes breed with Mallards and hybrids form, much to the consternation of my biologist friend who is interested in preserving the Florida line. Here is a mated pair in flight. You can tell the male is in the foreground by his brighter yellow bill. The female's bill is more orange and duller.

I just looked up the Latin name and I'm almost jealous. How'd you like to be named "Anas fulvigula"? Not great: "Hey Anas, get a load of this!" Great: "Hey, Fulvigula, get a load of this!" :)

One of which is slightly blemished, but still lovely.
