I am starting off the year with my favorite things to photograph.  I love when I get a chance to see and capture butterflies.  Monarch are a special treat since I usually don't get a lot of them through my yard.  In September there were a couple of days where there were about 4 of them around at least.  I captured this one enjoying some Goldenrod and was surprised to see that there was a bonus in the image as well.  A wasp was coming in to enjoy the blooms as well.

We finally got a bit of rain last night.  Now stuff will probably really start popping up with these warm temps.  I don't know how this can last.  My image today is a bit different one.  I am not fond of Wasps at all because I have been stung by them.  However this guy was just intent on drinking from the Sedum and didn't seem to care about me at all so I was able to get this shot.  I am not sure what type of wasp it is, I couldn't find a color match in my book.  I thought it was kind of a colorful one though.
