Well captured.

Nice and sharp... lovely color and detail.

Why "Red Admiral"? Orange Admiral would be more appropriate

[Lou Ann]

What a gorgeous butterfly, oh my. Their wing patterns are amazing.

[Babs]

What a beauty, well spotted, you must have been quick, they always move too fast for me.

@terryliv Thank you Terry for both your comment and Fav, apparently the name 'red admiral' comes from a corruption of the original 18th-century name 'red admirable' yet your right its still orange, every day is a schoolday on 365project, lol:)
