Seeing Spots

Good morning...

It's my turn to pick the word prompt for 
So this week the prompt is
Spots


We may not have summer weather here but we did have a relatively mild winter so plants have flowered early and the garden has been full of these pretty butterflies ... I managed to zoom in on this one which was sitting right at the top of my Forsythia tree ... Those spots resemble eyes ... to keep away predators
 It was quite difficult to spot this one camouflaged on the gravel


Lucky I didn't step on it ...
Of course butterflies are not the only thing we have had a lot of ... the ladybirds have been just about everywhere ... 


I keep finding them in the house and have to put them outside again ... And would you take a look at these guys


Hmm, enough said...


Ladybird and butterfly sharing a brief moment of Spring sunshine and this female blackbird with her spotted chest loves letting me know she's wants feeding ... she comes and sits by my door


I guess if you look you can find spots everywhere ... even on Bananas


And I just have to show you this sweet key holder I bought a couple of weeks ago ... I just couldn't resist those spots


...Or the cute little owls


Ok, I'm off to Our Beautiful World blog to see what my fellow DT members have posted ... Care to join me?

I hope you link up your "Spots" photos with us this week ... and be sure to link back to 

Have a wonderful Sunday and thanks so much for stopping by

Oh, I had a long look at those banana spots over breakfast... and decided this afternoon I will have a banana milk shake... Love your pictures - can't believe you got such beautiful close-ups of the butterflies. They ALWAYS fly off before I can take a picture!

Now that's some lovely spots. :-) We've been enjoying the butterflies too. Our lady birds or ladybugs as we call them are more orange than red. I have to put a few out too. Wonderful pics Ros. Hugs!
