[Leica] IMG: My First Butterfly Images of 2021

[Jim Nichols]

Hampered by a bum leg and a rainy July, my butterfly shots have been nil 
this year.  Today, I looked out the window and observed some activity at 
the Buddleia.  I picked up the Oly E-M1 with the Version 1 14-54 as a 
lightweight kit and eased out to the bush.  While I observed Carpenter 
Bees and a Clearwing Moth, they stayed shaded in the foliage.  I did 
manage a few butterfly images, severely cropped.
