Butterfly on my toe


(Hi All, no this is not the butterfly who sat on my toe. I found this photo on flickr.com Butterfly on Lantana

I sat in my garden for half an hour today, to read a book in a mystery series I discovered recently. I heard a flutter of wings and looked up to see a brown bird taking a bath in our bird bath.
Then I noticed a pretty butterfly or moth, brown and orange, creating a display on a plant right near me. It attracted two others who came over, perhaps flirting. One of those two sat on my toe.
I was very honored to have such a winged friend sitting on my toe.
Oh the side benefits of taking a moment to sit in my garden.
Have you met any critters in your garden today?
