How strange the snout. Welcome Lisa, too.

Welcome! I've never seen a Snout in real life before even though my butterfly book says they live in Florida. I must be in the wrong part of Florida. Nice shot of the open wings; most of the pictures I see of them are usually from the side.

That's a great picture of a snout!
