Butterfly Sighting: The Red Admiral


I see them every time I go to our backyard – black wings with orange band and white spots. They almost look like monarchs from afar but a little smaller.

Today, I was able to take a photo of one feeding on the nectar-rich flowers of our butterfly bush.

Binomial name: Vanessa atalanta
