Oh my gosh!!! This is extraordinarily gorgeous!! I never knew their wings were so intricate! The eyes are amazing as well...of course I am usually running away from them....I am not sure I would have the courage to get close enough to get a picture of this magnitude!! You already have bumblebees! We were at about 75 today and they are talking about cold temps here in the next couple of days...such weird weather. FABULOUS picture!!!!
