The Beauty of Texas Butterflies, Skippers and Moths


I confess that I haven't had my camera out much in the last month, so I am going back through some of my files and sharing favorites from the past. Today, I would like to post a few pictures of Texas butterflies that I have taken.

This beauty is a Pipevine swallowtail feasting on springtime redbud blossoms. 


I am not sure of the identification of this butterfly. It is feeding on a bradford pear blossom.


This is a Long-tail skipper on a Texas thistle.


Here is an orange skipper on a redbud.


Finally, one last unidentified butterfly on some beautiful yellow lantana.
