Very nice! I've never seen a Red Satyr before. We don't get those here as far as I know. Very pretty. I think those Red-Spotted Purples must be tough butterflies. I've seen some incredibly faded ones still flying around like everything's fine. Technically, we get Commas and Question Marks in FL, but I've only ever seen them in WV and KY. I saw so many Question Marks last September in KY and WV it really gave me a good idea about how to distinguish the two. They're so cool-looking. Topside and underside! And congrats on the Monarch release! I think you Texas folks are an integral part of saving the migration so good work! Thumbs up
