Monarchs and more

.
Monarchs are always a delight to find.

And easy to recognize/identify.

But I’m pretty clueless when it comes to other butterflies.

Tiny and quick they flutter so fast they are hard to catch.

Sometimes, freezing them with the camera will help me to identify them later, but I wasn’t able to get close enough to this little fairy.

I love the little bits of white along the edges of this one’s wings.

I may be clueless at identifying butterflies, but I still enjoy their beauty.

And Monarchs are always a delight to find.

Of course I found these before the fall migration.
