Lantana fly-by...
lantanas attract butterflies...
but, not when you are waiting for them..
my neighbor brought several dozen back from her son's home...
released in her yard..
have I gotten a photo yet ..
of course not !
they are beautiful..
look like dark velvet with carefully spaced spots on their wings...
if I must camp out to get a photo, so be it !
.. think this is the correct name..
Gulf Fritillary Butterfly - Agraulis vanillae.
