Description
The Taster....by Reid Callaway
Gulf Fritillary Butterfly Art
It looks like "The Taster" is enjoying its visit to this beautiful Lantana bush. Lantana is a magnet to birds, butterflies, moths and bees alike. This image, like most of my butterly, damsel fly and dragonfly images, are shot with a Canon 300mm lens at high speed/multi image shooting settings for a greater chance of capturing awesome detail and at least ONE perfectly focused image. I would recommend it highly!
The Gulf Fritillary or passion butterfly (Agraulis vanillae) is a bright orange butterfly of the family Nymphalidae and subfamily Heliconiinae. That subfamily was formerly set apart as a separate family, the Heliconiidae. The Heliconiinae are "longwing butterflies", and like other longwings this species does have long, rather narrow wings in comparison with other butterflies. It is not closely related to the true fritillaries, however. It is the only member of genus Agraulis.
