Common Buckeye In The Sunshine

Buckeyes are so beautiful. Sometimes their behavior is funny, they fly in front of you and land and open their wings. Then when you get closer they fly just a little ahead of you and do it again. It is like they want you to admire them and take their photo. Much more cooperative than other butterfly species.
