    I love Mr Grumpy 🙂

    1. Heyjude says:

      I’m sure he appreciates that BB 💕

  4. Oh, and that is one very big eye!

    1. Heyjude says:

      It’s always a surprise what you see with a proper macro lens.

    Oh, do you think he looks grumpy? Serious, I’d say.

    1. Heyjude says:

      Seriously fed up with a camera poking at him!

    I like grumpy folk! I get lots of practise…

    1. Heyjude says:

      Now, now, that’s no way to talk about your wonderful husband. 😂

      1. restlessjo says:

        It is when he’s not listening! Come to think of it..he never listens 🤣💖 Love him dearly. Especially when he’s driving me somewhere nice 😁

        1. Heyjude says:

          Haha.. of course you do.

  7. Love that close image – beautiful even if rather grumpy!
    🙂

    1. Heyjude says:

      He probably objected to me thrusting the camera in his face!

    Ha, yes, Mr Grumpy Gatekeeper, a butterfly that unfortunately l am seeing less of these days. Maybe that’s why he’s looking so grumpy: can’t find Mrs G!

    1. Heyjude says:

      I see fewer butterflies every year. It’s quite worrying.

      1. Ann Mackay says:

        Same here – last year was a very poor year for butterflies, although the year before was better. This last couple of years I’ve been delighted to see a couple of Gatekeepers in the garden – hadn’t noticed them before. I think they liked a new marjoram plant, so will plant some more.

  9. To paraphrase an old pop song…..”nice wings, shame about the face”….

let's have a conversation...
