Well, it did get a little cold down there.....right Jim :roll: . But now the temp is back up. I put my shorts on today because it is going to be in the mid 40s and tomorrow will be in the mid 50s. :wink: I wouldn`t mind seeing a beautiful butterfly this time of year. Thanks for the great, warm, sunny photo.

You know that is quite a beautiful butterfly. :D I like late winter when things are just beginning to peek out of hidding but I too am beginning to look forward to spring, though it is still a couple of months away. :|

Thanks Ken,, yes,, spring is still a while off :( I was out shooting and was still suprised at the lack of insects even here in the sunny south,, where there would normally be all kinds of insects, such as a really nice garden,, there very VERY few !! :( but it wont be to long and the heat will be kicking back up again :wink:
