Bee, Butterfly & Hummingbird Moth

Was out in the garden a few minutes ago, only for a short time due to the heat. Many bees, butterflies and hummingbird moths flying around in Dustin's garden. They all seem to love the blooms and the heat. We are at 94 now, feels like 102. That is crazy summer time weather. Snapped the photo above of the swallowtail butterfly on the purple butterfly bush bloom. And sharing a 37 second YouTube link. You can actually hear the bully Mockingbird I have talked about lately in the video. I don't pay him attention any more.

Great shots. Maybe the mockingbird will give up or figure out you are providing the food. I have one here that is imitating the kittens.

The butterfly is gorgeous. I’ll check your video out. For some reason it’s not working. I’ll try again later.

Lovely video! I turned up the volume, I couldn't hear the bully mockingbird. Did it try to swoop down on you again? We have a tree with purple flowers such as yours. Do you know what's it called?

Thank you so much for watching. That mockingbird is after me. He was right above me during the video. This is a butterfly bush.... Black Knight.
