There's a touch of fall in the air. We've had several really nice days!
Butterflies can have summer forms and winter forms. Their summer forms are usually more bright and colorful. This female Sleepy Orange is showing her winter colors.
Thank you so much for your kind comments and faves on yesterday's pics!!! :0)
Lovely! The national news was showing a piece on butterflies tonight and one of the ones they showed was the Sleepy Orange - I don't think I'd seen one before. Glad to hear they're wearing their winter colors - bring it on! You have introduced me to so many new butterflies - will be watching for one now. Saw my 2nd Question Mark today. Thank you thank you!!
Saw my first one of these a few days ago. They're lovely and this is a much, much better photo than I have been able to capture. You have wonderful separation of subject(s) from the background and the butterfly's color doesn't "burn" with too much brightness: beautiful, Carolyn!
