06-NOV-2006 Petesie

11/06/06

It's time for a butterfly again. I thought this was very pretty, but I'm having trouble
identifying it. It is very small and I'm reasonably sure it is a Theona Checkerspot, but I'm certainly not sure. Whatever it is there were two in my garden and they are lovely.

It looks like it is in mid-flight,but I'm not that good! It was sitting on a very small flower.

Very well done! You did good on this one. I'm not sure which one it is either!

It is a beauty. You have captured the antennae so clearly.
