Thanks!That last one! Terrific!
But to determine I needed the others, too.
Because males and females have the same pattern on the underwing.
And when they are sitting, their wings are normally closed.

Very nice John! When the birds aren't around, then the beauty of insects becomes apparent.I enjoyed a modest butterfly outdoor enclosure in Frankfort, KY. Here is the start of the photos I kept from it.
All with R5 + RF 100-500L lens.

This fellow scampered along the leaf into my view.
He's so little that I just had to name him "JUMBO!"

He quickly scampered to the tip of the leaf, and hid himself away underneath it.
(you can see the spider-silk trailing behind him)

Thanks, AlanF. It's such a pleasure to have the RF 100-500L, which in one lens does such a good job with distant birds, close butterflies, kitties, and so many other things.Very nice John! When the birds aren't around, then the beauty of insects becomes apparent.
