I loved seeing this butterfly peacefully coexisting with honey bees.
The honey bees below were taken in Colorado on October 20, 2011. The snow will soon cover these flowers and the bees will move to their hive for the winter. I'm going to miss my daily communing with them and my walks through these beautiful flowers...
This is the same ladybug in all these photos in the collage below.
The pictures were taken a couple of days ago.
I see fewer and fewer of them this time of year.

This praying mantis is the second one I've ever seen!
I photographed her in my hand. I love those eyes!
