Queen on the Duranta

If you are thinking it's a Monarch, you would be wrong.  Although it looks similar, it is smaller, darker in color and its dorsal side is much more solid.  I had a little free time today to make my way over to the butterfly house.  Since it was pouring rain most of the day, I had few other options. 

Thanks to all who joined in Tiny Tuesday this week.  I look forward to looking at all your images.  I hope to post results later
