Thanks so much, Jason!

Really like those images of the White Admirals on the gravel ground. The contrasting colours in their wings is incredible.

[Sydney Michalski]

Thanks so much, Neil! They really are special :)

[Sarah Savage]

Thank you for the name of this butterfly. They are common here in Colorado, and now I know what to call them when I see them.

[Sydney Michalski]

Yay, Sarah, so glad to have made the introductions! :)

[Paul Hormick]

These are marvelous!

[Sydney Michalski]

Thank you so much, Paul!

[Stacy Boone]

So well timed. I saw this butterfly today in the marsh and thought I would look it up but instead you shared and now I know. Thank you.

[Sydney Michalski]

That's so cool to hear, Stacy! I am just tickled at the idea of having made the introductions between new friends 🤣

[Tara Perrot]

Wonderful! 🙏

Another beautiful post! We have red admirals here in UK, but I've never seen a white one - they're gorgeous, and your pictures are stunning!

[Sydney Michalski]

Thanks so much, Rebecca! Red Admirals are so lovely, too - thanks for sharing, I always enjoy comparing wildlife notes :)

Beautiful post, Sydney. This is a wonderful blend of photography and field notes and memoir.

[Sydney Michalski]

Thank you so much, Heidi! That's a good description - I think maybe my whole life is a blend of photography, field notes, and memoir 🤣
