    I've had several hanging around lately and have been stalking them with my camera the last few days.

    You did well managing to capture the Gulf Frittilary with your camera. :smt041 No matter how stealthy I am I rarely get a good picture of butterflies. :sulk:

    Good shot of the GF. I love watching them flit around and if I stand still they will come really close and fly around me...one landed on my arm for a second then took off..I guess that means they don't mind me in their garden. ;)
