King of the butterflies...

Stepped outside this evening to barbeque some chicken for supper and quickly spotted 3 monarch butterflies feasting on one of my wife's plants (sedum aka autumn joy) in the garden. A rare photo op. Here are a few of the pics that I managed to snap off before I realized that my beer was getting warm and the chicken needed flipping.




(flash was off for this one... can you see the "ghost trail" of its flapping wings?)
