Danaus plexippus
A beautiful black, orange, and white butterfly.
Good start to collection medusasnakes123, welcome to PN. Enjoy!
I found this Monarch in my backyard on the ground. Thinking it might be dead, I went to get a closer look and it shifted its wings a little. I took a few photos and then my sister put it on a bush so no one would step on it.
Oh, ok
It's a monarch
This is a monarch butterfly, right? Or is it one of those species that mimic other species?
