Sunflowers abound!

I took a drive this morning to find a sunflower field.  I wasn't able to shoot at that field but instead of going back home I took some back roads to see what I could find.  What I found is a place that needs more exploring and that had fields upon fields of sunflowers for me to practice in today.
I finally found a Monarch butterfly.  I was using my tripod and trying to focus on this flower when this beauty landed on the sunflower!  How lucky for me!


 I found several varieties of bees.  Funny how not one of them was interested in me!
