Variegated Fritillary

Texas Canyon, Dragoon, Arizona

There is a larger pond than the one I usually visit on my lunch hour out in the desert on the grounds
where I work. It is very seasonal though so the only time it has much water is into our monsoon
season. It is full and beautiful right now and on the way there I have seen literally hundreds of
butterflies in lots of varieties!
