While walking along the overgrown fence row bordering one side of my property I noticed a gray butterfly flutter down into the underbrush. As I began to pay closer attention I found that a number of them were flying out of the brush into the open and then descending again into the thick growth before alighting. Soon one made the mistake of landing upon an exposed greenbrier leaf allowing me to capture this image before it fluttered along its way.
As with the Calico Pennant Dragonfly, I don’t have a name for this subdued beauty and am hoping someone here will be kind enough to identify my little treasure.
No clue as to identy, but quite a pretty little thing!

Love the photo!
ReplyDeleteHuh - think I can help! It's a "Large Wood Nymph"!
ReplyDeleteIt's on my "to shoot" list, since it's also found down here in Florida!
Good one!
Cheers, Klaus
Great shot!
ReplyDeleteIt's beautiful - you captured so much detail.
Yup sure looks like the Large Wood Nymph, although the colors are different, yours is more attractive than the one I found online!
ReplyDeleteWow! What a stunning butterfly. I don't believe I've seen one of these before....I will have my eyes open for this one!
ReplyDeleteGreat shot!
