I saw this lovely flutterer while out walking.
I tried to find out what type of butterfly this is – it bears some resemblance to a white monarch – but I’m not sure and to me there seem to be differences.
Regardless of its type, it sure is beautiful. I followed it around for a bit, trying to get photos as it went about its nectar-collecting day; it was so lovely to see.
Happy Saturday.

Lovely butterfly! Seeing the flower brings back good memories – I used to sip on its stems when I was a child because of its nectar.

Yes it is not a monarch. I had a bunch of them coming around my place for a while this summer and I took pics and posted them. They told me the name, but darn it. I forget now. Well, you will find out. Nice pics that you post, by the way. 🙂

They really are. So delicate that I’m surprised they live as long as they do. Have a good weekend, Allan (maybe a less rainy one?). Cheers.

Thanks, Linda. I still am not sure what kind it is (I only have my phone with me and set to airplane to avoid roaming charges, so I haven’t done a proper search) but will do a good one when I’m back home. Cheers.
