Bees, butterflies, buddleia bushes, and Bohol !

[Doc Alan]

• SCARBOROUGH, east coast of England
It’s been a good summer here .



The buddleia bush is also known as butterfly bush.





Cinnabar moth ( and a cheeky green beetle ! )



… and in Switzerland
• LAKE LUGANO

This is a bouquet carefully balanced on the balcony of my daughter's apartment overlooking Lake Lugano !




New olive groves by the lakeside.







Genuine ( not plastic ) water lily !




… always good in Bohol .

• Bilar, BOHOL ( http://boholconservation.com/simplybutterflies/ )

Thanks Steve, Arthur, bigMarco, and Mick .

I took all these photos ( original, unaltered ) with a compact digital camera, a 14 megapixels Panasonic TZ 18, which has a 16 X optical zoom, and useful " macro " setting .
