When I approached the butterfly bush this morning, the first thing I saw was 
a humming bird, but she left quickly.  Then I noticed a butterfly that I had 
not seen before.  Online research informed me that it is some form of 
Painted Lady.

If my identification is in error, please correct me.

There was a lone bumble bee working the Rose of Sharon blooms.  Here, he 
makes his approach.
