Here is a photo of one that eclosed yesterday but I got home late at night and had to use a flash to get a photo in the dark!!! Have another that went into the chrysalis stage too.

As gorgeous as this butterfly is what made more of a flutter out here was the larval host plant it was using. I can't remember the exact name but it is a native violet that nobody has seen these butterflies using around here :o)
