Red Admiral Butterfly Visit

Was surprised to see this beautiful Red Admiral (according to the experts) visiting Dustin's garden this morning. There are still many blooms in the garden, so who knows, I may see more visitors. I had my phone when I refreshed the bird bath, so I was snapped some photos of this beauty. You never know what you might see in my backyard. Always a surprise.

@CarolDM I'm not sure where you live but the beauty and splendor of autumn will soon succumb to the devastation and cruelty of winter.

That is good you can see butterflies visit you. It is really hard to find butterflies nowadays
