May I join you?
A drone fly wanting to share the buddleia blossom with a Comma Butterfly in my York garden. I had been concentrating on what could be the last butterfly of the season high in my last flowering tree, when I spotted the drone fly speeding in. I just had enough time to slightly shift focus from Comma to the drone fly.

This sky where we live
Is no place to lose your wings.
So love, love, love.
Hafiz حافظ
Human beings are members of a whole,
In creation of one essence and soul.
If one member is afflicted with pain,
Other members uneasy will remain.
If you have no sympathy for human pain,
The name of human you cannot retain.
Saadi
“Of one Essence is the human race,
thus has Creation put the base;
One Limb impacted is sufficient
For all Others to feel the Mace ”
—Saadi (1184–1283)
