Hey ya'all!

When I posted my design I asked for people to like the post if they would like a sticker of it! I got almost 30 likes, so I had 50 stickers made.

...no one has gotten even one.

So I still have 50 really pretty stickers, but i'd rather 50 of you have one of these beauties... 3" diameter round, weather resistant (fine for even vehicles, trust me Ive been driving through downpours just fine!). $2 each plus $1 for shipping (US) or $2 shipping (world), since I can fit up to 10 in a regular envelope fine 😊

www.paypal.me/sunguramy or if you don't have paypal we can figure something out I'm sure. If you donated at least $10 to someone's mutual aid, I'll send you one free.

Photo of a sticker which is mostly green and purple in colors, as it is a green background with purple coneflowers which have orange-red centers. On the main in focus coneflower is silver spotted skipper butterfly, which is tawny colored with orange and silver spots. On the edges it has scrawled text "Planting a garden is believing in the future" which is large enough to easily read. They are not die cut so they are much easier to remove from the backing, which is square and the white edging you see (don't worry, the cut line on the sticker means the entire sticker is full color!)

I was cycling to work this morning, stopped at a red light, noticed a dark thing flying, almost got sucked into the engine of a massive truck. But then seconds later it fluttered towards me and landed on my knee... Look at this gorgeous thing!

I don't know much about butterflies, so I looked up this one and it's a male Eastern-tailed Blue Butterfly, a common butterfly species across North America.

J'ai la très grande joie de vous présenter ma première photo pas trop dégueulasse de moro-sphinx
Ma première rencontre avec ce lépidoptère remonte à 2018, et je m'étais demandé ce qu'un colibri faisait dans l'Aveyron, parce qu'entre sa vitesse, son vol stationnaire et sa longue trompe pour butiner, on est plusieurs à se faire avoir, si bien qu'il est surnommé le Sphinx Colibri (ça claque, non ?)

https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moro-sphinx

c'est vraiment une beauté blobhaj_tiny_hearts

My garden was buzzing today!
(Info in alt text)

I did order the sticker design I posted the other day. Seemed popular : )

This is what happens when you have your macro lens set for good depth of field so even though it's bright it was only on a shutter speed of 1/320 and a freakin' HUMMINGBIRD CLEARWING comes by! So fast! Zip zip and gone....but the first one I've seen here so I'm really excited! Yes the exposure is off, I was take photos on the flowers in the shade and it picked one in the sun so yeah I could have whacked up the shutter speed if I had more than a split second to focus and go before it left...So an overexposed purple coneflower and a half blurred black white orange and olive green moth.

A day flying moth! "Yellow Collared Scape Moth" whatever the heck that means. What's a scape? I don't know. Yellow? Goldenrod is yellow but it seems like it's an orange collar to me. Someone messed up with this name. Ah well. Really enjoying the goldenrod though!

Buckeye butterflies with their cheery purple and orange dots and splots on my purple coneflowers. There were actually *five* all kinda fighting for the best spots and they kept having aerial fights! Or...maybe fending off sexual advances too. Hard to tell sometimes, haha!

Here’s a
#MondayMorningMinute
with #nature here on World Bee Sanctuary.
Take a moment.

#pause

Go do some #good.
Have the best week you can.
If you’re not having a good week - tell someone.
And if someone tells you -
Listen.
Really #listen.

Small Tortoiseshell butterfly stands on a pink thistle flower foraging nectar. Shot from slightly above and very close providing a lovely view of the wings. A breeze moves the flower away momentarily then the butterfly takes flight.
