A Gulf Fritillary #butterfly (Dione vanillae) enjoying our front garden zinnias yesterday - the last day of warm temperatures for a while, a cold front came in around sunset and we’ve dropped 40 degs F since then, woke up to cloudy, rainy weather with temps in the mid-40s (~7 C). Feels more like proper Halloween-ish weather so I don’t mind, especially after the blazing hot summer we had here.

1. Close up color photo of a Gulf Fritillary butterfly sitting on a yellow zinnia flower with its proboscis extended down feeding from the zinnia’s florets. The butterfly is mostly orange in color with large white spots surrounded by black on its wings and white stripes down its hairy body. In the background and extending above the butterfly is another zinnia flower that is orange.
