Painted Lady butterfly
The second photograph shows its underwing. Drinking from an African daisy in my yard. Lots of butterfly photographs are in my book THE ART OF BUTTERFLY GARDENING.

Even though I’ve moved on to writing novels and short stories, this book is very close to me. I had a chance to have it reprinted with new photographs and I really am proud of it. It should have won an award, but that wasn’t meant to be. Still, for a how-to, it has its literary merit as a memoir as well.
Joy Marzolf at Mass Audubon’s Broadmoor Wildlife Sanctuary made this poster of my books to go along with the framed bird photographs at my exhibition “The Art of Backyard Bird Photography.” It doesn’t get any better than Mass Audubon. The show runs there in Natick, MA until May 31.
A Painted Lady butterfly to brighten up your day, taken today in my yard. My book THE ART OF BUTTERFLY GARDENING has lots of butterfly photos in it.
Kristina Mastrocola just wrote a great article in Woman’s World about butterfly gardening and hummingbird gardening, and she quoted me about both topics and mentioned my book THE ART OF HUMMINGBIRD GARDENING. I couldn’t resist going down to the newsstand and picking up a copy of the May 23, 2016 issue. It isn’t every day that you appear in a magazine with a circulation of 1.6 million. I hope it helps to spread the word about gardening for butterflies and hummingbirds.
The article on hummingbird gardening and butterfly gardening featuring my quotes and books THE ART OF HUMMINGBIRD GARDENING and THE ART OF BUTTERFLY GARDENING will appear in Woman’s World magazine on 5/12 with a cover date of 5/23. Kristina Mastrocola is doing the article, and I’m looking forward to reading it.
