I had never seen a butterfly like this here at home until last summer.It's wings remind me of an artists palette.They loved the thistles down by our creek. There were only a handful of them and they didn't hang around very long. I really enjoyed watching them the short time they were here.
Lightbox this little guy for best viewing.
