The Gulf Fritillary is a recurring fall subject on my blog–how could I pass up photographing this beauty, especially on such vibrant yellow flowers?
The underside of the wings are a completely different pattern.

Thanks for showing these different views Ellen, I’ve probably been confused by that, given my only way of seeing these is via photos!
Isn’t it amazing how it looks like a different creature–glad you liked them, Liz!
Indeed a big contrast on both sides, just like we see it at many other species of butterflies. This one is a real beauty and thanks for the nice shots you made.
Thank you, Rudi, so glad that you liked this one!
One of my favorite butterflies! Constant visitor in our garden.
Wonderful to have them stop by!
