ps...that Buckeye photo link Linda posted was taken at South Padre Island - about 60 miles east of me :o)

We get Common, Tropical and some say even the rare Mangrove Buckeye here.

This is the Tropical - note the dark brown and orange surrounding the forewing's large eye spots. The Common has a more beige to whitish markings surrounding the forewing eye spots. I've not seen a Mangrove Buckeye here.
