Summary

Description

Ruddy member of the Nymphalidae nectaring on buttonbush in a local cypress swamp. The young feed on the leaves of nearby strangler fig trees. I chose this rather odd angle to show the markings on the wings and abdomen. Cypress boardwalk at Frenchman's Forest Natural Area, Palm Beach County. Here is a 2 minute video of these magical creatures taken hand-held hanging over the boardwalk:
