Backyard Visitors

In the past few weeks I have not been able to get out to shoot an event, so I have focused on my backyard. Here are few a visitors:
The bee is in a hosta flower. I was shooting the flowers until the bees came along.

We have a very large butterfly bush (about eight feet tall and six feet wide) and the name holds true. During the last two years we had a lot of humming birds come to it, but this year nothing.


This I found out through a Google search is an Asian Lady Bettle, thus the orange, yellow color instead of the native red. They were introduced on purpose in the west and are taking over the red ladybug.
