Field Notes

Habitat:

Fields, parks, gardens. I see them often in suburban parks and disturbed fields.

Notes:

Lucky to catch a few shots of this male with the wings open, showing off their namesake. (NOTE: The last photo is from an old sighting just to show what they normally look like when you see them on a flower.)
