Here is a migrant Yellow-headed Blackbird female that is so orange that it took me a while to ID her. It didn't help that she was travelling with cowbirds.
I presume this Mourning Cloak butterfly is a result of all the Spiny Elm caterpillars that worried me so when they were consuming my cottonwood tree leaves. Much more attractive as a butterfly.
My favorite butterflies - such subtle, beautiful coloring. Very nice shot!
