Those are two different butterflies. You can easily see how unalike they are when looking at them side by side
According to Google photo matching it's a:
Gossamer-winged butterflies

I haven't done much lately but I took a "boatload" from the boat in the grand Canyon last week.
Street - your ranch is so great for photography! Always wildlife and great landscape spots!
Mathjak - nice wwII photos. Those B&W shots look like the real war photos.
And the last photo has a certain quality about it that reminds me of a civil war battlefield painting. Of course the vehicle is out of place.
All around, great job mathjak!
Wow such amazing beauty! Thanks Mathjak.Wow - nice shots Mathjak!
