I’ve never seen one of these. Your photos create a desire to do so.
The Common buckeye is one of my favorites. I am always excited to see one. I love the colors and markings.
Absolutely beautiful in its symmetry. Thanks for sharing your talent.
The buckeye is a stunning butterfly! Thank you for your kind words.
Love these butterflies! Nice job catching them…
Thank you, Karen!
Wonderful captures of this beauty! Is that lavender it’s on?
Thanks, Patti! Lavender was my first thought, but I’m really not positive.
It’s vary pretty, whatever it is.
Very–I’d better call it a day!
Such a beautiful butterfly and wonderful photos!
Thank you, Pete!
Beautiful butterfly Rebecca!
I had a Canadian Tiger Swallowtail follow me while riding my bike yesterday! It flew right beside my head for some strange reason?
Very pretty butterflies! Occasionally, in the hot of the summer when I’m on a walk, I’ve had a butterfly land on my arm and walk all the way home with me. They are attracted by the sweat and don’t even want to leave when you try to shake them off.
might be the salt they want?
Yes, I think you could be right.
pretty little salt lickers!
Beautiful pictures. You have a great talent !
Thank you for your kind words! Taking photos and walking in nature are leisure activities that I enjoy and it is fun to share them with others. Many blessings to you!
