More butterflies

I'm surprised to have butterflies in the winter time but I saw 5 or 6 species today. Here is a male Pipevine Swallowtail, always a lovely species to behold.


And a male Queen


My favorite capture of the day was a species I don't remember photographing before, a Southern Dogface (female). I must tell you that if I post the butterfly's sex, it's because my dear lepidopterist friend, Brian Banker, told me. I'm lucky if I get some of the IDs right.
