Last 2 Butterflies from Calle Nueva

Well, it is a little trouble getting there, but almost always productive when I walk the 10 blocks through town to get to Calle Nueva and this May 10 walk gave me 10 species of butterflies which I finish today. Tomorrow I’ll share the 3 birds I photographed and the next day the other wildlife, then back to sharing from my garden! 🙂

These two little guys are always nice, even when one is damaged like this time: Tailed Orange – Pyrisitia proterpia (iNaturalist CR link since I have no gallery yet.) and the more common Whirlabout Skipper – Polites vibex (my gallery link). This was my first sighting of a Tailed Orange!
