On Sunday, I attended an annual free outdoor concert held on the edge of downtown Binghamton, New York called Blues on the Bridge. We usually attend for two or three hours. Local bands play approximate 30 minute sets, from 12pm, ending around 9pm.
During a break I decided to stretch, and walked over to a large bed of zinnias in what we call Confluence Park, where the Chenango and Susquehanna rivers come together.
Another photographer had the same idea. Posed with her phone, I followed where her camera was pointed.
A monarch butterfly was sitting on a zinnia.
It flitted around the flower.
I didn't want to scare it away.
It went to another flower. And then it flitted away.
So, I guess butterflies like blues/rock concerts, too.
Welcome! I hope I bring a spot of calm and happiness into these uncertain times. I blog about my photography adventures, flowers, gardening, the importance of chocolate in a well lived life, or anything else on my mind.
