A Solitary Monarch

A beautiful Monarch was busily feasting on a butterfly bush at Bernheim last weekend near the Pavilion. The wind was brisk at times so he would hang on the bush as it swayed back and forth in the wind. It was difficult to get a decent shot. As I walked closer, he immediately flew away. Unfortunately, he didn't land anywhere nearby. This was the best image I could get. I sharpened it as much as would allow. Have a great weekend everyone. ENJOY!
