Lots & lots of butterflies in Sholom Park

Captured this Gulf Fritillary butterfly in Sholom Park Ocala.

My daughter and family flew back to California yesterday. It was so great to see them especially their youngest son (9 mo.) since this was the first time seeing him! Miss them so!

This is fantastic. Parting really is such sweet sorrow. I’m glad you had some real time to be together, glad they could stay for a while.

The Gulf Fritillary is one of my favorite US butterflies. Alas, I do not live in their range. :(
Looks like it may be on a Bottle Brush plant, possibly Callistemon rigidus. :)

Such wonderful detail -- but what I particularly like is how the red flower accentuates the beautiful butterfly.
