Good set Keith, the Great Tit has to be the best, scruffier than a Coal Tit.
I hope things are getting better Keith.
Your butterflies are stunning Keith .... I'm just jealous ;)
Excellent photos!
I wish you the very best results by your consultation!!
The litte Poppy is like in a fairy tale, so gorgeous and the butterflies - absolutely charming and so beautiful!! - of course the little so cute locking birds too.
best regards for you

Thanks Adrian. There was a Coal Tit about, but he was very shy lol
Thank you Bob. Yea, I’m told I’m on the mend. Just wish it would mend quicker lol
Pescalune, thank you. Don’t be jealous; your new lens gives you superb results :)
Várday Béla, thank you for stopping by, and commenting. I appreciate your comments.
Isabella, thank you for your comments and wishes. :)
Keith, your entry this morning lifts my heart. Hope and pray all goes well with yours.
I have not seen the Marbled White moth before.
Perhaps I have to move to get a glimpse of such colorful birds.
My prayers are with you for a fine day.
BlessYourHeart
Hope you get on OK Keith. The Small Copper is great and you found a Marbled White as well.
WOW..the light on that tortoishell is amazing, and the DOF on the heather is incredible!! OF Course all of extreme quality as usual Keith...hope all goes well with your cardiac visit today!! Hugs
Thank you for your comment Dar, and your kind words.

Thanks Dixxe, appreciate you comments.
Well, the doctor says I'm on the mend......just wish it was quicker lol
Keith, I hope you get some good news from the doctor. Thanks for the comments and visits to my blog page. I am inspired and amazed as I look at work. I'll be checking back again and again for the pictures and to hear some good news about your heart.
Thanks for your comments David. Always appreciated. :)
Beautiful photos Keith, they always inspire me. I hope your appt. went well!
The week starts very well with beautiful photos!
Thank you Hillary. Yea, the appointment was pretty good.
Kozma, thank you :)
Fantastic photographs of the butterflies. I have taken a liking to the Marbled White which strangely is a species I've been thinking a lot about recently.
I seem to have noticed a decrease in the numbers of butterflies near where I live, have you noticed this?
Thanks for your comment Anna.
Yea, I've noticed a few species down in numbers from last year. Small Tortoiseshell and Small Copper both spring to mind, and I've only seen one Red Admiral, and one Peacock this year.
Good luck with your tests. I hope the photographs were therapeutic; for me there is something relaxing about looking at photos from a macro lens. Good work!
All are so very excellent but being the women I am I love the pink flower and the butterflys on the pink.. ..Wow Outstanding. You are a master of light . I love your exposures .They are always dead on.
Have a good week and Thanks .
Love the way the Chaffinch is looking and from the last batch I think the way the woodpecker is peering round the feeder is fabulous.
Thank you for your comments JoLynne :)
Thank you Lisa. Appreciate your comments.
Thank you John. They certainly have some good poses at times lol
