Field Notes
Description:
I believe this is a viceroy butterfly, but since I identified it myself feel free to correct me! These were beautiful, fluttering around effortlessly. One even landed on me! They were really common throughout the whole exhibit and I loved watching their grace as they soared from flower to flower.
Habitat:
Found in the Florida Museum of Natural History; in the wild they'll typically inhabit all North America, and southwards to Central Mexico.
