This is my first post on the Nature and Wildlife forum. For those of you who have seen these two shots on the Photo Critique forum, my apologies. I wanted to share them here too.

Hey, CF - nice to see you meandering over to the N/W forum!

Yeah, I saw these two earlier and they are great. Thanks for sharing them with the other nature freaks, I mean enthusiasts!

Thanks Loupey. I guess I should include my hummingbird shots here too. I hate to duplicate shots and waste people's time but if viewers are like me and not venturing off to other forums then it might be ok.

Thanks for the kind words.

CF

Good Captures keep them coming :)

What kind of butterfly is the 2nd one?? It's new to me and very intriguing.

Very nice captures too

Thanks to all very much for the kind comments. The butterfly is a Gulf Fritterlary common to southern California. Thanks again.

CF

Welcome to N&W CF. A very nice introduction you've posted here, looking forward to more from you.

Thanks payn. I will see what other Nature shots I can dig up. I have a couple others that may fit the forum. Thanks again.

CF

Nice images!!! I love that Fritterlary!

Feel free to post any dupe image you'd like, because I have no time to look at other forums usually.

BTW.. Watch out for the Moderator here.... he's a bit of a nut :D

Hey paulnj---

Thanks for the heads up.

CF

Those are beautiful shots. I haven't ventured far from the nature forum yet myself; look foward to seeing your hummingbird pics.

You do know I am the "mod", right ? :D

Yes, I do.

Sorry, had I intended to return the humor.

Humor is good! :wink:

You got that right!
