  This comment appears here and is greatly appreciated. It is fascinating just how much like a bark chip these guys look like when their wings are folded up. Hope your doing well and your day is going fine.

  Hi, hope your dong well. These are very cool butterflies for sure. The side that looks like tree bark is amazing and we have seem them in many subtle varieties to match the forests they live in.

I love this one a whole lot. What a little beauty this little angel is. These photographs are spectacular. Rustler’s Gulch sounds very familiar, where is it?
