Queen Butterfly
I had a chance to visit Gabriel Valley Farms, a local wholesale nursery, to do some photography. I got a chance to wander around a bit and found these spectacular Mexican flame vines (Senecio confusus), which had attracted this male queen butterfly, who posed prettily while I snapped pictures.
I had to do some googling to figure out that he's a male queen butterfly - you can tell by the dark spots on his hind wings.
