Great shots, Todd. These are some of the same butterflies that I have been seeing here. Those blooms are beautiful and appear to be a magnet to attract all types of butterflies. Good shooting.

Thanks Mike! I do not know how many of these species migrate, but they sure have come together in the past couple of weeks.

Each butterfly makes a whole different perspective of the same flower!
Great day of work to capture all of these and make them so vivid.
