Butterfly and Savory


Butterfly and Savory

The visiting insects like these tiny blooms as much as I do. Alas, they are all cut, collected and drying in the house.

Do you know what kind of butterfly it is?

No. It's the only one I usually see. I haven't investigated but I'd wager the caterpillars I saw around in the spring are this one. Not sure what resource I would use to discover such a thing. :-)

I think this is a Milbert's Tortoiseshell, see the website www.turtlepuddle.org for pics of alaska butterflies.
