A multicoloured Aglais io or European Peacock Butterfly sits, wings spread in the sun, on the deep purple flower of a Butterly bush/Buddleija as it spreads above a pavement next to a road. The butterfly’s wings are a mix of bright orange-red with black markings and two black “eyes” in white surrounds. The background is provided by the thin green leaves of the shrub.

Sunday is #Stunday and at last we caught a neighbour’s Butterfly bush living up to its name this morning on our regular stroll. #ButterfliesOfBluesky

A Black Swallowtail butterfly with wings open on an orange flower. The wings are mostly black with blue tails and an orange dot on the inside edge of each wing tail. Pale yellow dots line the edges of the wings.
The same Black Swallowtail butterfly from the other picture but with wings halfway closed.
This gorgeous #BlackSwallowtail butterfly visited my garden today! I usually don't see them in my gardens, so I was very excited for this visitor! And he/she let me take pictures!

This is a close-up photograph of a butterfly perched on a yellow wildflower. • The butterfly is shown in sharp detail, with wings folded upright. Its wings are patterned in shades of gray, brown, and pale blue, with darker spots and wavy lines. The underwings have a somewhat mottled, camouflage-like appearance, helping it blend into tree bark or foliage. • The butterfly has large compound eyes, long antennae with orange tips, and a visible proboscis (feeding tube) extended toward the flower. • The flower it is feeding on has bright yellow petals radiating around a cluster of small, tightly packed golden buds at its center. Green stems and leaves surround the blossom. • The background is softly blurred in green tones, making the butterfly and flower stand out sharply in focus. This butterfly is a Hackberry Emperor (Asterocampa celtis), a North American species commonly found in wooded areas near hackberry trees, which serve as host plants for its caterpillars.

Red Admiral atop flowers
Close up of Red Admiral
We call this a #RedAdmiral. This one is having a little drink of #nectar. Do you have a different name for it? Or does it not live where you are? This one wasn’t easy to shoot due to the terrain and I was fearful to disturb it.

A Yellow Eastern Tiger Swallowtail butterfly is on a purple Buddleja (Butterfly Bush). The butterfly is yellow and black with blue and orange spots near the hind wings. The Background is a blur of green foliage.
Warm breeze drifts and sway,
Summer's fleeting warmth soon fades,
Sweet memory stays.

A nice backyard surprise. This Giant Swallowtail was enjoying our butterfly bush. They rarely sit still so I was happy to get a couple of good captures. #canonnaturephotography #canonnature #butterfly #naturephotography #nuts_about_wildlife #nutsaboutnature #butterfliesofbluesky

This Red Admiral fluttered around my hair before landing on leaf to pose. After a few minutes, it arose to join another and they circled together in flight overhead. Centre focus on Red Admiral sunning its shimmering wings on an ivy leaf.

A small Atala butterfly rests on a leaf. It has black wings with blue dots on them and a bright orange body.
Listed as a "species of greatest conservational need", Atala butterflies were once almost wiped out due to over harvesting of the Coontie palm. Thanks to more use of the plant in landscaping, they are making a comeback!
