Blinking Confused Shrug! And of course the butterfly didn't cooperate and open it's wings fully before it flew off. Glare


So typical right? You only get one view - open winged or closed. There are "tons" of both of them on Google images but the problem there is you don't know who really knew their stuff when ID'ing them so you might be looking at anything. I also, as I'm sure you did, found there are sub species such as the Bay and the Quino. Very confusing and no photos. I'm glad you have the books b/c there is precious little online to try to determine from. BAMONA will figure it out & you don't have to go cross eyed any longer.
I am a strong believer in the simple fact is that what matters in this life is how we treat others. I think that's what living is all about. Not what I've done in my life but how I've treated others. ~~ Sharon Brown
