Zebra Longwing on hummingbird feeder - Heliconius charithonia
Sparr, Marion County, Florida, USA
July 7, 2008
I had just filled this hummingbird feeder when a Zebra Longwing Butterfly came
to sip the nectar. I have seen Zebra Longwings on my hummingbird feeders before
but this is the first one I caught with my camera.
