I'm not really sure if this is a female or male Silvery Checkerspot. I couldn't really tell from the pics in my book. I think it's female. I'm calling it my queen for the day, because it let me take so many pics. It went from flower to flower in the same area. I even went inside and came back out, and it was still in the same place. :0)
No, YOU'RE the queen for all time, C!
She is beautiful too, though! Checkered antennae and spotty wings! Very, very nice!! Perfectly framed...and I love her wise-looking grey eye and spiky hair-do!
