Buckeye butterfly (Junonia coenia)
About Me
- Rurality
- Living in rural north central Alabama. Currently overstocked with pets and poultry. Having lived in several small towns and larger cities, country life is taking some getting used to. A refugee from the corporate world since 1996, I'm the proprietor of a handmade soap company called Natural Impulse. The photo is of Jasmine, fearless protector of the homestead from coyotes, bobcats, deer, herons, airplanes, butterflies and fuzzy little bunnies. You can email me at blog (at) naturalimpulse.com.

Oh yeah! Nice shot!
hiya, thanks for stopping by. What a nice blog you have, you make me jealous of your lovely homestead. I enjoyed the photos (not so much the photos of the snakes albeit highly educational!)

Oh you do get the best critters and the best shots. Wow. Spectacular.
Awesome picture. Common Buckeyes are such beautiful butterflies, aren't they?
Great picture.
Is it true that these butterflys are as big as an eagle..
Absolutely gorgeous! Great photo!
Thanks y'all. We've been seeing a lot of butterflies lately, but for the most part they're not wanting to sit still.
I've been trying for a Frittilary or Monarch, but so far without much luck.
