Butterflies of Texas

We have just returned from Texas - we went mainly to see the birds (and the sunshine and our friends and not necessarily in that order....) but we were introduced to the beautiful Texan butterflies by Lorna. These are a few of the ones we saw. Apologies if any of the names are wrong - we are novices - corrections gratefully accepted! We'll post some more photos when we've identified them....

  2. Beautiful & perfectly identified. Remember how we identified all the photos from Falcon? I am still looking for the list I put in my purse. The photos take me back. I think the best day for butterflies was at Falcon. What a gorgeous day!
