Pretty butterfly
Taking a break on a leaf
So small and so blue.

Marine Blue Butterfly On Algae Scum 4 comments
Marine Blue Butterfly On Blue-Green Algae Scum (Cienega Creek) — Image by kenne
In our recent walk along Cienega Creek, much of the creek’s surface water has begun to dry up, leaving behind pools
of water perfect for the buildup of blue-green scum. We noticed a marine blue butterfly flying over one of the pools,
suddenly landing a leaf floating on top of the scum.

This butterfly can be identified as a Marine Blue by the narrow cream and broader brown bands
on its ventral wing surfaces and the two small eye-spots on the hindwings.

The secret lies in the present —
if you pay attention to the present,
you will be able to improve it.
And if you improve the present,
whatever happens afterwards will be better too.
Each day brings us Eternity,

Lupine Blue Butterfly On Buckbush Blossoms -- Images by kenne
Fire On The Mountain Down valley a smoke haze Rises above the Catalinas Six days of fire and heat After 100 days of no rain. I try to remember the smell of rain Of mid-afternoon thunderstorms In the Sky Islands of my beautiful desert Nurturing wildflowers and butterflies. I turn and go back to Mt. Lemmon Thinking of the recent moments Hiking with friends through young aspens and pines caught on steep ridges Between heaven and earth. -- kenne

“I saw a poet chase a butterfly in a meadow. He put his net on a bench where a boy sat reading a book.
It’s a misfortune that it is usually the other way round.”
