These photographs were taken early summer, don't think the Great Spangled Fritillary butterflies are still out flying around here. Look at his tongue in the bottom photograph.
Very nice pics. I was very excited because I spotted a mourning cloak butterfly this weekend. It is the first butterfly, other then cabbage whites, that I have seen in a while.
Great pictures of this butterfly! I haven't seen one of these this year. I like how they curl their tongue up!
