Two Autumn Butterflies

I’m slipping in this post on two butterflies also captured during my two recent visits at Blackwater NWR.  Give them their own post.  🙂

This first one, an Eastern Comma, displayed like a golden gem on the tree trunk deep into the woods.  I wish I had shot it with my wide-angle lens to show it amongst all the tree trunks.  It was definitely an eye-catcher.

Eastern Comma Butterfly – 10/28/18

 

The second butterfly was a late migrating Monarch.  I was very excited to see it.

Both butterflies fit in nicely with their colors of Autumn…..
