Simply fantastic work on this very lovely capture, Jim.
It is a Dryas Julia native to Mexico, Costa Rica and Northern South America. I found it at the web site: http://www.flmnh.ufl.edu/butterflyguide/orange.htm Beautiful photo by the way.
Thank you for the info.
Very nice capture! Certainly not a butterfly we'd ever see up here in the north.
Very cool capture interesting colours
very beautiful fella and capture
Did you ever see the imax movie "Flight of the butterflies"? I think you might like it! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X9Crm06kr0Y
Oh and sorry I was too late.......but yes it is a Julia Butterfly!
It's a pretty capture!
excellent capture nice lighting
I never know why english chose "butterfly" (litteraly "mouche à beurre") when french says "papillon" (latin) and germans "schmetterling" ("schmetten","schmand" = cream). Why the butter or the cream ? Très belle image !
A lovely shot Jim but these are not seen in the UK.
They usually don't venture this far North in the USA either. It was a delight to see it.
beautiful butterfly:)
no idea, but a nice shot of it, Jum.
Beautiful capture. It harmonizes so well with yellow flowers.
Beautiful to look at and educational as well!
The colors are superb, excellent photo !
Such a beautiful one! You might try googling: orange and yellow butterfly? I have never seen this kind before either!
Marvelous closeup. Wonderfully captured.
