Gulf Fritillary

Around Home, Texas Canyon, Dragoon, Ariz

I've been walking out to an area about a mile from home where Passion Vine grows, to catch the
flowers and the Gulf Fritillary which makes Passion Vine its host plant. I haven't caught the flowers
yet, but I did catch the Gulf Fritillary butterfly and caterpillar.

Excellent work, Carol. Finding the caterpillars requires a great eye and attention. You are inspiring me, always, to watch and see.

Even knowing that these spines do not sting, I prefer not touch them! Beautiful caterpillar, well captured. -V-
