Saturday Critters ~ 203 ~

Another butterfly that was still hanging around Cape May
The Painted Lady
Similar to the American Lady Butterfly,
here is a great article that describes their differences.
This article says it is one of the most common butterflies in the world,
- I didn't know that -
and like the Monarch, it cannot survive cold temperatures.

Wow, my dear friend, as always beautiful butterfly photos. You take the best photos ever and should be in a photographic art exhibit. You are the best.
This lovely butterfly has spectacular colors. Blessings and hugs!
