More wings...


Usually up at the swamp area, there will be all kinds of butterflies...this time it was only a couple different ones that gave me an opportunity to photograph them.


First this buckeye...


which I think is absolutely beautiful.


Then we have this beauty....


Unlike the Buckeye, I seldom see this particular kind of butterfly.


Going by the white mark on its wing, I think it is a Comma, but feel free to correct me if you know different.  There is another one called a Question Mark but the marking is slightly different.

    I don't know my butterflies well, so I will accept your id on this one. What I do know is that you got lovely pictures of both.

    excellent shots - and we have the Comma flutteries over here, so I can confirm your ID. The Buckeye is not one I know - very nice! YAM xx

    These are wonderful. Believe it or not the only time I have been able to photograph a butterfly was when I found one dead. They never hold still long enough for me to even get the camera up.

    Yes, that's definitely a Comma, we have those over here too. It's a lot easier to identify by those ragged looking wings than by trying to see the little white mark. The Buckeye we do not see here - which is a pity as it's certainly a real beauty.

    The Buckeye is gorgeous. I don't know butterflies and have seen these but I didn't know their name. I've never had luck photographing them. Enjoy your day!

    Just seeing your wonderful closeups of these beautiful insects is exhilarating. I am working on a post of some butterfly photos taken with an iPhone. No comparison, but fun for me.
