April 16 - 22 of 365

Reflections 106 / 365
We were out for a drive today and I noticed this reflection at the side of the road. This is actually nothing like our countryside usually looks, the exact opposite in fact. The dead tree is a bit of a giveaway.

MMM (Common Crow) on Duranta 107 / 365
I found a beautiful butterfly today and chased it all around the garden. It was red, yellow and white. I captured it but not as sharply as I would like. Whereas my little MMM was happy to pose for me. The MMM refers to the markings on the wings and it's my name for this butterfly which is actually a Common Crow. I'm slowly learning the names of the butterflies around here thanks to other 365ers helping me out.


Caterpillar?! 108 / 365
This is some kind of water plant I have in my pond. When I looked at the shot I think I found the world's smallest caterpillar. You might need the magnifier to see it ;-)


Whiskey 109 / 365
This is our neighbour's beautiful cat asking if I really needed to wake her up for this photo.


Gentle giant 110 / 365
My grandson Jackson's little fingers and the gentle touch of his Great Dane puppy Maddie.


Butterfly dream 111 / 365
This is one of the butterflies I've been chasing in my garden. I didn't get a really clear shot of her so I decided I would have a bit of fun in photoshop.
She is a Northern or Scarlet Jezebel (Delias argenthona) - don't you just love that name!


Hibiscus refraction 112 / 365
I haven't tired of refractions yet. I still think they are amazing.
