Monarch Butterfly Collecting Nectar from a Glob Thistile

This was shot in a local outdoor botanical garden. The assignment was to shot close-ups of flowers.
However it seemed that I had the opportunity to be at the right place at the right time.

The biggest problem was trying to get in close with out disturbing the bee's. They seemed more jumpy that the butterfly.
