A worldwide community photographing and learning about wildlife
Project Noah Nature School
Danaus gilippus
There have been six to ten butterflies every day and most of the day on the Gregg's Mistflower.
The garden is about half an acre of native plants specifically planted for wildlife. The main water source is a pond that is filtered by two gravel streams. It is on a peninsula by Lake Lewisville.
Like Monarchs, the male has a black androconial scent patch on the hindwing.
