Favorite Butterfly Name
For an instant, a bright orange-red butterfly landed above me, and I snapped -- two somewhat unfocused photographs -- before it flew up and off into the woods.The Question Mark butterfly, a brush-foot and an anglewing, with curiously shaped wings meant to fool predators. At rest, their wings' undersides look like old moldy leaves.But their topsides? Spectacular! And their name? Poetic!
