Nice one, Jim. Interesting bokeh, too.

On the subject of butterflies, I motorcycled down to Pemaquid Point a couple of 
days ago, and apparently a monstrously huge flock of monarchs are getting ready 
for their annual road trip. Two or three tall pines were absolutely covered 
with them. Naturally, I didn't have my camera with me, at least not one that 
would have got me close enough. Come to think of it, I don't have anything that 
will get me close enough. Where's Moose with that OM-D when I need him? <g>
