Keeping track of my edible garden.
Wow, that's a beauty! Love the deep black edging on the wings. We have ceanothus but probably none of those guys. The bees do love it, though!
Ah, well, I'm always amazed when I see a butterfly photo. So far, I've not managed this feat. Thanks for sharing!
Karen, this butterfly ranges throughout the western US so you might see it. Town Mouse, butterfly photos are always a matter of luck for me. I've been seeing Chalcedon Checkerspots all over the garden but can't get a shot!
That's lovely! Butterflies are difficult to catch.
Michelle,We saw 10s of thousands of these last August near Yosemite. The whole day was a woow experience. Came back the next day and only 50 or so remained, they travel in large numbers.
Randy, that had to have been an amazing sight. I don't think I've seen one of these in the garden yet this year.
Thank you for taking the time to leave a comment. I value your insights and feedback.
