Weekly Photo Challenge: Wildlife

Barb turned me onto this, so I thought I’d give it a try. If nothing else it would mean a new blog 😉

The Weekly Photo Challenge is a wordpress project. Every week the folks at the Challenge blog will put up a weekly photo challenge theme. Participants post a photo with that theme and link back to it on the blog.  They suggest taking the photo that week, and as luck would have it I just took one that would fit this theme, so I am going with one old and one new 🙂

Okay, so the butterfly was dead, but hey, at least it held still 🙂

And that’s my exciting contribution! The butterfly could have been better with less background, but it was raining and I didn’t want to get the new camera too wet, so I stayed close to the house. If the butterfly is still in the potted plant out front, I may give it another go down by the fence later. It hasn’t been too windy, so maybe it hasn’t blown away yet.

If I’ve seemed quiet the last week or so it’s because I had a round of flu and I am now trying to catch up. I am having trouble with my webhost and it won’t let me upload my site updates. They claim I have filled the 2 GB of space limit, but I haven’t. We’re looking into a new host from Texas, but it comes with a $72 price tag, so I need to get some covers done so I can afford it!

All right, off to work. Hopefully I can squeeze some writing time in somewhere, huh?
