Variegated Fritillary (Euptoieta claudia)
The Variagated Fritillary is another solitary butterfly. It is a ‘flighty’ butterfly, continuously on the move, flitting from place to place, rarely staying still for more than a few seconds. Very frustrating to photograph...
It usually sits with wings folded.
It sits and flicks its wings open intermittently but rarely holds them open long enough to get a photo. I stalked this particular butterfly for some time and captured many images before I succeeded in getting a good photo of it with its wings open.
