The summer of 2006 was a delight of butterflies and moths. I photographed a Clouded Yellow with his wings open, a great rarity. I saw and photographed in my own garden a VERY rare visitor, my first and probably only, Camberwell Beauty. For more than 2 wonderful weeks, 2 Humming Bird Hawk Moths visited my buddleia at highly predictable times. A joy and pleasure beyond description. 200906 Sony H5 crop g-4 091108 220709
This sky where we live Is no place to lose your wings. So love, love, love. Hafiz حافظ
