   Today was one of those #butterfly days where you don’t know what you got till you get home and analyze the images. I headed back to Penasquitos Creek today, primarily to see what was flying in the Heliotrope. There were a few Hairstreaks and various other things. A few people went by and I got distracted, but then some kind of Sulphur flew in and I managed to snag a video of it. Took it home to discover I has snagged a Southern Dogface; a stray in from Mexico that I have never laid eyes on. #butterflies
