It’s amazing how such things as these beaufiful, fragile butterflies and also hummingbirds can fly non stop across the Gulf of Mexico. They seem so weak, yet have amazing strength and endurance. Truly, examples of God’s handiwork. Nature is a wonder.
Gembeaux, thanks! It’s nice to learn a little something on a Monday morning. I did not know what type of butterfly it was.
Just some fun info: The butterfly pictured is a Gulf Fritillary (agraulis vanillae). They fly in groups between southern Mexico/Central America directly across the Gulf, obviously non-stop. One of the more common and more beautiful butterflies in our area. The three light spots at the leading edge of the wings is a way to identify this particular species. The underside of the wing has a different pattern, but the three spots are still there.
These butterflies use the passion flower as their larval (caterpillar) food source, so if you want to see more of these, put some of the plants around the yard!
Great photo, by the way!
