Note the egg it just laid on the yucca (above the skipper).

An exquisite beast

Found the previous day by the home owner (along with a Ruby-spotted Swallowtail), we were able to visit today, and saw the Pink-spotted in their yard. This is the second record for the United States.

Working outside when I saw this on our verbenas. Didn't recognize it so grabbed camera and got a couple photos. It flew off shortly afterwards.

Five record for U.S.

Interesting butterfly- looks like an American Lady with much of the black - orange. The underside being tan, the white window spot missing though, has me puzzled.
