Location: Shark Valley Everglades National Park, Florida

I find I don’t have a lot of patience for chasing butterflies and dragon flies.  I don’t have the equipment to zoom in on them from afar thus I have to get close and hope they stay still.  Of course if I get close to them too quickly it spooks them and they fly off, if I move slowly they loose interest in their perch and move off.  Luckily I was sitting still, a rarity for me, and this one landed nearby.
