On a Saturday a
few weeks ago I started my day with a long run. When I do my long runs in the
mornings it effects the rest of my day. So I did a few things around the
house, but took several breaks in between. On one of my breaks I decided
to take a garden walk with my camera. A ton of Monarch butterflies were going crazy over my two Hyssop plants. I decided to take a moment to watch the
butterflies, hoping for a unique photo opportunity. Well, I sure did find one.
When I first saw
this, I thought I really need to save this butterfly from this Praying Mantis!
As I looked more carefully it was still alive, but knew it was to late for
that. At that point it became something amazing at how this Praying Mantis was taking
in the butterfly for his next meal. Here is a photo sequence of this
moment. The Praying Mantis and the Monarch butterfly are both beautiful,
so it was both sad and amazing.
Please feel free to leave comments below or email me for more information or if you would like to purchase a photo.
