Sunlit Flutter
The way the sun illuminates the wings of this butterfly is quite stunning. These are fairly common around here. This is a Gulf Fritillary Butterfly (Dione vanillae).
My gallery is mostly of bird photographs, but I include some insects such as butterflies, moths, and dragonflies. Take a look:

When we moved to our current home in 2015, I was delighted to find a patch of #PurplePassionflower down by our little muddy pond. This #native plant is the #host for #GulfFritillary #butterflies, so I would frequently check for #caterpillars, often finding them. I also collected fruits and attempted to get new patches established. This work finally paid off this weekend, when from the pupa I'd been following emerged a new adult Gulf Frit!

It may interest you to know this name is similar to "#fritillary" used in butterfly names. I suspected this had something to do with "flitting" or "fritting" around, etc. But it turns out to be based on a Latin word for "dice box" as in "roll the dice", and must therefor be a reference to their spots! 🙂

Work on the #Backyard #ButterflyGarden continues!
#Native #Wildflower seeds arrived a week or so ago. Raining here today, so those will go into the ground Saturday.Even without an abundance of blooming host plants, I've noticed a diverse number of #butterfly visitors. 🦋🌺
Next up- get some milkweed and passionflower plants. #Monarch #GulfFritillary #ZebraHeliconian

Finally settled on this #GulfFritillary #Butterfly as my best #photo on Flickr for the year. I like some of the other photos better for where I was, or what I was trying to do with the shot, but I think this came out better overall.
Other candidates include a squirrel, autumn trees, and black-and-white sunbeams, but this was the most attention-catching at a first glance.
