Butterfly Eyes and Gazing Ball



Backlit Gazing Ball

October Butterfly

The weather is strange this year in Edmond, Oklahoma. Last week the temp reached a high of 87d. Tomorrow morning it will drop to 29d. I took the pic of the butterfly with the strange markings that look like eyes, at least to me, today near my office. I took the pic of the gazing ball this week when I noticed how radiant it was when backlit by the sun.
