Mating Monarch butterflies (more pictures)
Flipped the photo and it had an interesting effect.
The butterflies now seem to be taking paces in preperation for a good old fashion duel !
The male (may be the female ??) On top periodically flapped their wings which proved to be quite a challenge to catch a photo of.
Just an interesting view of the mating ritual.
Thanks for looking !
Upvote if you like butterflies!
Good photos! But they're not Monarchs. I think they are Gulf Fritillary. You can see them here.

Well i am surely not a lepidopterist. Thank you for pointing that out I guess i dont know what monarch butterflies actually look like !
It's pretty amazing that you even got the opportunity to take these photos. I had to look them up so you taught me something new. Thanks!
