Butterflies and moths are like living flowers in their loveliness and grace.  Whether you are looking at a brightly colored and cheerful-looking monarch butterfly, the delicate and elegant dark form of a female Eastern tiger butterfly, or a completely understated silver-spotted skipper butterfly, all butterflies have their own unique beauty.

Moths, the “butterflies of the night,” are equally fascinating.  They, because of their shy nature and low-light environment, are much harder to photograph however.
