Red admiral butterfly [View all]

There was a red admiral on the lilac bush yesterday, but it flitted about and didn’t light on a flower long enough to get a shot. I sat by the lilac this afternoon and waited. After a half hour or so, a red admiral arrived and I got this shot.

Kind of a misnomer. A touch of orange on a background of brown makes a Red Admiral? Martin68 Apr 2024 #11
