Red Admiral Butterfly

I saw this red admiral on my walk the other day. It seems like I saw more butterflies in the Pacific Northwest when growing up. I do miss them.

Swallowtail

I caught this swallowtail as it was passing through last July. I'm still cleaning off a memory card and finding new images.

September Moths

Every year, around the end of August through the middle of September, these moths are in the area, especially at the lavender.

They are fast, as can be seen by this photo with a shutter speed of 1/100 second. 

Mourning Cloak

This Nymphalis antiopa was in the back yard yesterday. Otherwise known as "Mourning Cloak," it is seen all over North America.

Red Admiral

 

A Red Admiral was passing through this week, on his way back south.

Pine White Butterfly

Update: Thanks Larry M. for the identification as a pine white!  You can find out more about it here.  They will need to change the "range" of this butterfly as I saw this one, and many others, on Whidbey Island.  This butterfly is now in northwest coastal forests.

I tried to identify this butterfly online but the task is daunting.  Anyone know what this is?  I caught this a couple of weeks ago on the Maylor Point walk.
