I tried to locate the name of this one, but clearly I'm not good at finding a match. In the butterfly house at the Henry Doorly Zoo.

It might be a Yellow Swallowtail, but the high contrast from being backlit and the fact that his left wing is shadowing his right makes identification difficult.

If you've ever wanted to make a difference but found it hard to believe that one person could... check out the Kiva Team Caedes discussion thread and discover that anything is possible.

Definitely not a swallowtail. The wings are folded and this fellow is much smaller than a swallowtail.

Could be a White Admiral or a Zebra Wing!

Good closeup

I wish I was a Glow Worm, a Glow Worm's never glum, 'cause how can you be grumpy, when the sun shines out your bum?

FAVORITE..... my goodness, you keep raising the bar! What a sensational capture. The superb lighting, the position of the butterfly, the shadow on this beautiful green leaf, the soft background, the composition, simply tremendous.

No act of kindness, no matter how small, is ever wasted.
