the butterfly's brunch

I went to the garden to play with my new
camera, which has a 50X zoom.  I was
impressed with what I could capture from
a fair distance—and handheld too.

Thursday Challenge — "many"

once part of the boulders deposited here many, many millenia
ago by glaciers.  (The lone butterfly is a relative newcomer.)
