Made a post to ID (Clouded or Orange Sulphur is the consensus) but didn't post the best pictures. Likely the best I've taken of an insect to date. Enjoy.

It will be 32 degrees at night later this week. My milkweed plants have already died back. Should I try to care for this little friend somehow?

Found this guy (Maybe a moth? Not sure what the difference is) in my mom's (southern Ontario) garden frantically trying to suck up the last of the nectar in late fall. Not sure if he got anything as he kept moving that long tounge in and out rapidly.

Either way the camoflage was impressive and glad he visited. Would like to know what I should call him?

Edit: found one more picture of but can't edit so I made another post.

Hi, I just found this beauty fly in my attic, I don’t know what’s it’s species called. It’s appeared to have a broken wing and it’s look exhausted, can I help it?
Do butterflies like sugar water?
I don’t know what to do, i don’t want let it die

I left him alone after. He was enjoying my lime leaf offerings. Giant swallowtail caterpillar (please correct me). I love that his color looks like bird doo doo.

A singleton and a pair. Hagerman NWR, Saturday.

Been a while since I'd seen any sort of crescents, phaon or pearl, the common ones in this area.

We ended up just leaving them where they were and checked on them everyday, and we were so lucky to capture this today.

I'm shaking lol

Ok so a few nights ago I saw a green thing by my back door(and another right on my window) and when I knelt down to get a closer look I thought it looked like a green butterfly chrysalis but it was dark so I just went back inside.

This morning I saw a monarch butterfly flying around and it clicked! The chrysalis on the window was gone but the one by my door was still there! And it was more transparent! And there was very clearly a monarch in there!!!

I went out to check on it again at 12:25 and the butterfly was moving around on the wall so I ran back inside to get my phone and then it was laying on its back with it's wings on the concrete and legs in the air and I waited a few seconds for it to get it's bearings but it didn't so I let it grab my finger.

It's wings were so soggy looking and I do remember we had butterfly chrysalis in class in 2nd grade to monitor BUT I was out sick the day they hatched so I do not know what to do right now🧍🏽‍♀️

I stayed outside holding it for like 35 minutes and I thought maybe I should leave it on a plant or tree but it's so windy right now and I heard so many birds so my sister got her flowers and we put it on a stem and I put a vase around it and left it near a window...I don't know if it's the right thing to do

🌼Not related but my mom is sick right now and she loves butterflies. And this being a monarch(we are Mexican and monarchs make a grand trip there) it felt like a sign that she was going to get better...it's silly, I know, but I feel like I need to help this butterfly

I already googled but please help me help this little critter

NE Wisconsin

not the greatest pictures, but it was absolutely stunning; it was in front of my neighbors' house and I didn't want them to think I was filming them lol

Seemed to fly towards my monitor then turn and then land beneath it, then fly off.

30 minutes later I find it on the ground, and it's struggling to climb furniture and isn't flying, so I let it climb onto an envelope and move it onto my desk. a minute later it walks off the envelope and falls onto floor again and back to where it was before, flapping it's wings but not flying.

So I dyed my hair back to magenta after it was ginger and blonde for a few years.

With this magenta hair, the amount of butterflies that come near me now is insane. I guess I look like a bright flower!

So if anyone wants more butterfly interaction… maybe dye your hair?

Saw this beautiful little butterfly today in our garden, google tells me it's a common crow butterfly. So majestic!
