Description
Nikon 7900 pocket camera, hand-held image.
Here is a Gulf Fritillary Butterfly just moments after it emerged from the Chrysalis which I showed yesterday.
It appears as if this one had not yet figured out how to deal with the long double proboscis. There is definitely a lot of 'tongue' sticking out,lol.
Tomorrows image will show the result of a little experience with it.
Thanks to those who take the time to comment.
