I wonder how many generations it took to get there from Mexico. Nice photos.
Thanx. It took me awhile but I finally captured this American Lady nectaring on Coriopsis (on film only).
The butterflies knew that you had a camera on you. Such divas!
Lovely photos.
Thanx. Went to Pleasant Valley Conservancy and was surrounded by butterflies, predominantly Baltimores. They are really flying this time of year. A lot of Silvery Checkers pots and Skippers too. Some Monarch but not alot.
Thanks for the photos. How strange. Caterpillars turning to butterflies.. All that energy for the metamorphosis.
Always great to see them.
Absolutely. I have some more pix. I cropped the best I could.
