Well, top of the morning to you to dear friend. And what a beautiful way you start the day out with this gorgeous picture of this beautiful monarch butterfly with its wings spread, enjoying its nectar and the warm sun. Love its markings and colors. Added to that, the beautiful dof with the flowers that fill the page is just gorgeous. A full page of beauty my friend.Marty Straub August 06, 2010
