Vacation 2016 is coming up in a bit, so it's time to start working on more of last years vacation pics.

From July 10, 2015.

After a day in the Port Hardy area, we headed down island. We stopped at Butterfly World in Coombs and then went to The Raptors in Duncan before stopping for the night.

AI Overview

The image displays several Red Admiral butterflies (Vanessa atalanta).

Appearance:

Red Admirals have a distinctive appearance with black-brown wings featuring white spots near the tips of the forewings and a prominent orange-red band across both forewings and hindwings.

Habitat and Diet:

They are commonly found in woodland edges, gardens, and other open areas. While adults can feed on flower nectar, they also frequently consume tree sap and decaying fruit. Their larvae primarily feed on plants in the nettle family.

Migration:

Red Admirals are known for their migratory behavior, especially in areas with harsh winters, where they migrate south and then return north in the spring.

Distribution:

This species has a wide distribution, found across North and South America, Europe, and Asia, often corresponding with the global presence of nettle plants.

Butterfly! Sign of spring? Actually this butterfly was in a small room at Butterfly World. The weather had turned cold so they let them loose in a small heated space. What a visual treat.

(follow on to "Grass goes to your head"... see below)

I have had to rush and upload some of my better shots from Butterfly World in view of forthcoming migration(holiday)!

Doing a trip here soon with tuition on how to photograph the creatures!
