Monarch

Westerville, Ohio

A Monarch butterfly feeds on a plant in Sharon Woods Metro Park near Columbus, Ohio. I was photographing birds
when I saw the butterfly - the 600mm f/4 and 1.4x teleconverter wouldn't be my usual equipment of choice
for shooting butterflies. I had to back up a couple of steps to get this image.
