Low hanging fruit

All the lower apples have been picked. Now I need the ladder to get the higher-ups. There is only so much low hanging fruit to be had, lol.

There is a nice 'hole' I can pop up into and have a 360 degree access to some fruit bearing branches. I noticed yesterday just before dusk that there were many large butterflies swooping around and landing on the branches. I worked hard to get a good shot but this one was the best I could do, from below, using zoom. They avoided me even though I stood quite still. I thought they were big for butterflies. And they moved fast. No lazy flitting for these guys. They zoomed.
