Brilliant shot Klahanie 🙂.

Love this photo so have added it to my favourites . . . :o))

Beautiful photo, the Verbena is an excellent nectar source isnt it?.
Do you know which butterfly it is?

Added to my faves! Fab shot!

Ah that's the rub I'm not up on BC butterflies. I will see what I can find. Are the upper wings just black and white or did they have any other colour?

There are a whole group of black and white ones. We have 5 different species that fit that grouping. I found several ones that just didn't match the photos but that could be down to male or female differences.

Wow, just beautiful!
