thanks! Florida is full of wild life. iI contrast to here, it is obvious and not as elusive.

Nice timing!

Thanks Kathleen. Totally wild . On the roadside. i told my husband to pull the car over so that i could get a few shots. It is amazing how the colors of butterflies usually match the host.

Was this in a butterfly house or garden?

Gorgeous!
