Thanks for looking and commenting all. Eagle -eyed Moose is corect about the slight front focus on the one but it seems to hold up at viewing size OK. It is tough to nail the focus at F8 or 11 though the VF but I don't have any lens that renders quite as nicely for largish B'flys. I don't think focus peaking works very well on the A7(r) stopped down but mag LV would likely be much better.

Philippe is correct about the hazards of the journey. I provided lunch and reminded the two in our yard to bring their passports, but the journey is very long and treacherous. It would be nice if their great grandchildren (or GG GC) do make it back for a visit. I believe it is the 3rd or 4th generation that finally make it back to New England. The photographed visitors are the long lived generation that migrate back and have to survive the winter in Mexico and make it a bit north in spring to breed. I wish them luck as they will need it.

Monarch fan, Mike
