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.
- Two Baltimores on Purple Milkweed
- Baltimore
- Black Swallowtail on Golden Alexander
- Monarch on Common Milkweed
- Silvery Checkers pot on White Clover
Thanks for the photos. How strange. Caterpillars turning to butterflies.. All that energy for the metamorphosis.
Always great to see them.
