Thank you for posting your beautiful pictures. They were just what I was looking for to identify the butterflies in your CT yard.

Hi Tom,
Love your pix. Great selection. I'm somewhat surprised that you don't have a shot of the lovely Mourning Cloak. They have been very abundant in my backyard (SE New Hampshire) this year, especially in the Spring. Keep up the great photography!

Hi Tom,
Wonderful butterfly gallery. So comprehensive and the pictures are beautiful. After 20 years of birding, Lloyd and I just started paying close attention to butterflies and dragonflies last year. Have only seen a fraction of the species that you have, but it's nice to know we we'll have another good reference come next spring.

Fabulous job. A body of work comparable to the Audubon field guide.

Congratulations on a terrific butterfly photo gallery. You might want to double-check your "Pepper and Salt Skipper" as it looks like a Lace-winged Roadside-Skipper. Great photos!
