Good morning and HBW to everyone. I know, might be a stretch with the bokeh thing to some of you, but I needed an excuse to post this shot of a Question Mark (Polygonia interrogationis) on Heath Aster (Aster pilosus). The butterfly swooped in while I was photographing some other butterflies, took a few quick sips of nectar, then was gone in a flash. The above was the one and only photo I got of it.
As for the two photos in the comment section they are of a different butterfly, albeit a fall - winter form also. Please see caption under first photo.
Thank you for stopping by...and I hope you have a truly nice day.

Stu was totally confused, so much so that Question Marks started floating around his head! I hope this is ok? I know you mentioned minimal edits before, so if this isn't I'll replace it with something else.
A question mark and an exclamation mark made from jigsaw puzzle pieces, next to each other, dissolving on the white background.
This Question Mark butterfly has complete violet/lavender-tinged outer margins. By the end of summer, the wings get pretty ragged (if they survive that long). Question Marks are interesting because they are seen as often on mud, sap, vegetation or fruit as on flowers.
It's called a Question Mark because of a silvery marking on it's outer hindwings.
EXPLORE #452 April 29, 2012
Good morning. Just a single posting of a Question Mark Butterfly (Polygonia interrogationis) I captured yesterday on top of a trimmed (or broken) branch limb at the pond across the street. I saw it by accident and it was the only shot I was able to get before it flew off.
Question Marks are part of an association of butterflies commonly known as "anglewings," which have sharply angled wings. When folded at rest, the undersides resemble dead leaves or pieces of bark. This group includes anglewings, tortoiseshells, commas, question marks, leafwings, snouts and daggerwings. Habitat includes deciduous woods, forest clearings & edges, and open woodlands.
Thanks for visiting...and I hope you have a great Sunday.

After being told to arrest the Ice King, Finn and Jake strip the monarch of his magical crown and call him names. I mean, what else are they suppose to do.
And we know it's never simple, never easy
Never a clean break, no one here to save me
You're the only thing I know like the back of my hand
And I can't breathe
Without you, but I have to

A pleasant end-of-summer surprise was finding this Question Mark nectaring on the Heptacodium….along with a couple of Monarchs and Hummingbirds.

This photo is an example of Lutz's Andorra stock-photo collection with actual 100.000+ quality images of Andorra: "The mystic country with hundreds of questionmarks". About 10% of these pics are seen here at Flickr.
Yes, meanwhile more than 10.000 of 100.000+ andorran photos visable online! It is the largest professional image catalog of Andorra from the newer history: all regions, all cities and villages, all times, all seasons, all weather(s), many themes & categories.
This catalog is bundled in a sophisticated and consistent system for agencies or tourism planners with easy and logic handling for the non-professional. Light architects might print in large format for public areas. The effect is stunning.
Most images are made "to tell a story". So - instead of writing 1000 words, try 1 picture. Remember the rule "a picture paints a 1000 words"!
