    I thought I was taking pictures of the same butterfly until I down loaded them.

    I don't think I have seen the one with red on it...maybe someone else can help identify it. I tried but didn't find any like it. Butterflys can look completely different from top to bottom also. The one I think is so different is the red admiral.
