Notes:

I never get tired of seeing these beautiful butterflies even though they are common in my yard. I loved the color contrast between the butterfly & the buddleia.

Thanks Gerardo! These are probably my favorite butterflies!
The vivid colors of the Gulf fritillary advertises it's toxicity to predators.
