No Longer Aero-Dynamic!

This ragged looking American Lady seemed to be able to fly all right - but the poor thing is definitely not a picture of beauty these days. One of the two butterflies I've seen in my yard this summer.

I guess they age over the summer! Still pretty!

Beautiful colors!

Looking a little tattered, but still a beautiful butterfly.

Does look a little tattered, but it has some very nice colors. Great shot.

[jackie edwards]

do they fade as they age? I took one yesterday and it was very worn looking and had a tear in one layer of it's skin : (
