Related: About this forumBeach butterfly!
Monarchs are migrating, but they don't stop to pose. I've gotten a few shots of Fritillaries and Buckeyes, but nothing special. Finally, an Orange Gulf Fritillary stopped by the yellow wildflowers blooming on the dunes outside the house long enough for me to get shots of both sides of its wings.
