Cockrell Butterfly Center Series - 2
Posted by Eric Fry (Houston, TX, United States) on 28 June 2008 in Animal & Insect.
Not sure on the ID of this butterfly; I didn't get the ID sheet that they were handing out. Common names will be provided on future posts in this series for one's that I know.
Possibly a Tiger Longwing - Heliconius hecale
Thanks for visiting, and I hope you all have a great day,
Eric

@dj.tigersprout: Thanks, DJ. There were more of these flying around than any other species; hundreds of flashes of yellow and orange.
