It seems to be

a year for insects.

This pretty little moth
kept me company an entire day
on the ceiling of my room.

i would love to get closer to
this beauty
dining on the agapanthus 'Elaine' nectar

However
i require a long-ish lens
to capture the gorgeous marbling
in the nest of the bald faced hornet

Butterflies are such beautiful creatures; and hornets are such creative architects/builders. Glad the latter are not too close!

I hope you get this message...I have probably lost your email...I want you to know that I am thinking about you and hope that all is well.
You have been such a blessing to me. You have supported me and warmed up my heart.
May all be good for you...Ellen.

I knew I was behind, but it's still a lovely August here!

Merry Christmas-to-be, Zephyr...
