White Peacock butterfly #lepidopteragallery #vero
I didn't notice it at first, but this seems to be a photo of two White Peacock butterflies mating. Unfortunately, I didn't notice the second butterfly (below the first, adjacent to the lower right wing) when I was taking the photo. It was early in the year (March 9), I didn't expect to see butterflies mating. However, perhaps I was too excited to see a butterfly, as it was early in the year.
Scientific name: Anartia jatrophae.
Date: March 9, 2025
Location: Spring Hammock Preserve, north of Orlando, Florida

East African Forest Acraea butterfly #lepidopteragallery #vero
This East African Forest Acraea butterfly seems to be struggling to climb onto a branch in this photo. (At least I think that is what it is, but please let me know if you know better.) We saw many insects in this swamp, as well as some interesting birds, as our local birding guide showed us around.
Scientific name: Telchinia pharsalus.
Date: August 1, 2025
Location: Bigodi Swamp, near Kibale national park, Uganda

Julia Heliconian butterfly, flying #lepidopteragallery #vero
Julia Heliconian butterflies seem to be quite shy, so as I was photographing this butterfly, it started fly away. Fortunately, I was prepared, with a shutter speed of 1/2000 second and was trying to catch it in flight, since it was not perching. I love orange insects, but I rarely see this species, as they are mostly in south Florida and not where we live.
Scientific name: Dryas julia.
Date: March 19, 2025
Location: Coral Reef Park, Miami, Florida
