Question mark butterfly, named for the tiny white mark on the underside of the wing, shaped vaguely like the punctuation symbol. If you look closely you can see the mark on this one as it feeds on juices from the orange slice I put out for birds. I love the shape of the wings on this species. Should one land on a tree branch they can blend in perfectly with leaves and bark.

"There are four questions of value in life. What is sacred? Of what is the spirit made? What is worth living for and what is worth dying for? The answer to each is the same. Only love."

for Kim Marie and Aunt Hinkle
The goal of this brightly colored blend was not only to blend images but somehow to blend personal styles as well. In this case, to blend the color and design styles of kimmg and Hinkle Hinkle with my mashup blending style.
The piece is inspired by Kim Marie's Life is a Mystery and the devotion to dedication of Hinkle.
The title is a play on words, starting with Kim's reference to the Madonna lyric in Life is a Mystery and twisting it, using the lovely fractal swirls of Fractal Ken, into a misquote of Sarah McLachlan's Building a Mystery:

I'm going to use the first set of comments to credit each of the pieces that went in to this unusual new blend.

Riddle me this: Why didn’t I post any pics of shadows last week?! This must be remefied . . . This must be rectimied . . . This must be remic . . . This must be rectm . . .
This must be fixed.
So this week’s Humble Offering of Humbility is brought to you by, you guessed it, The Pointer Sisters. Or shadows. Let’s stay with shadows. Have a creative week burning through the neutron dance, everyone!
wednesday 15th july;
well today was pretty crappy. joe was meant to come over yesterday but my mum was off so she took me to meadowhall instead, but it helped cause joe was going to go to klark's school presentation thing anyway. we planned on him coming to mine today instead but that got ruined also thanks to the 'rents (not mine). ugh. so basically i was in tears all day after, which didn't help with the way i have been feeling lately. the photo explains it all.
i bloody need to stop feeling like this.. *cries*
The Big Question
I don’t know who arranges these stones but they make for some interesting foreground. Came across these while exploring Isthmus Bay at Derwentwater.

It was a record 80o on 2-7-19 so we headed to the wetlands - and saw the first butterflies on the main trail. Then we went to their favorite spot to overwinter. 80o pretty much guarantees a butterfly but we saw 10 - most of them old overwintering Question Marks (or Commas). The last one was a Sleepy Orange - a friend tells me he saw an S.O. too in Athens GA. Usually Orange sulphurs are the earliest sulphurs on the wing. Anyway, not a great shot but these overwintering butterflies are fluttering 10-40 ft up around pines & hardwoods full of fresh Sapsucker holes - and only 2 perched for shots.

Good morning and Happy Butterfly Monday. Today's featured butterfly is the Eastern Comma (Polygonia comma). A medium size butterfly with a wing span of 1.75 to 2.0 inches (4.5 - 5 cm). As with it's close cousin the Questionmark butterfly, there are two color forms that generally correlate with the "summer" and "winter" adult generations.
The first three photos in this series are of a "summer" form Comma on thistle, while the next to last photo in the comment section is of a "winter" generation Comma. The last photo in the comment section is of a winter form Questionmark, which I posted to compare with the Comma. Specifically the difference in spots on the forewings of the two species.
I hope you enjoy this series and find it informative. Thank you for stopping by and I hope you have a truly great first day of November and week.

A Question Mark taken at Sweetwater Creek State Park, Douglas County, Georgia, USA on the 19th March 2019.
A freshly emerged summer form of the Question Mark butterfly. The wingspan is 5.2–6.4 centimeters (about 2.0–2.5 inches). There are two colour forms that generally correlate with the "summer" and "winter" adult generations. The upper side of the hind wings is predominantly black in the summer form and mostly orange in the winter generation
Thanks for your visit… Any comment you make on my photograph is greatly appreciated and encouraging! But please do not use this image without permission.
I couldn't believe it when I logged on tonight after
a few days away & found one sweet surprise after
another from so many loving friends. I thought my
heart would explode at any moment & be oozing
down my screen! It just makes me feel so effing
thankful for you guys. Honestly, I never knew a
more loveable bunch of people all in one place!
Longtime friends of mine know there's almost nothing
I love more than a whipping up a good birthday surprise.
More than Christmas or any other holiday, I look forward
to the times of the year that mark the days my darling
friends came to be. With a huge move & a new baby in
my life last year, I wasn't able to be my usual spoiling
self on the days that truly mattered, but I'd very much
like to do as much as I absolutely can this year to help
you all feel great on your big day. Now, I'm still a full-time
Mama to 2 kids & have commitments that tie me up from
time to time, so I'm not promising grand events or anything
I won't be able to live up to, but I'd love for everyone to write
their date of birth here in a comment, & when I can, as time
permits & the ideas come, I will do my best to find a way to
mark your day with whatever I come up with, whether it be
a special photo tribute or an extra long comment or perhaps
even something sent by mail. Type out your addresses too
if you feel comfortable doing so, & even if you think I know
your birthday already, leave it anyway. I'm going to use this
page as my little online birthday book reminder.
And thank you all in advance! ♡
