She got her wings?

My newly molted adult female?

Note: I try not to feed my mantids butterfly's

Due to there beauty, but I live in an area where there are

More large butterfly's than there are flies

Beautiful, did you take any more shots

 

[PIaf94]

Just a few of the same image. She was devouring it so

Fast I just let the burst do all the work?

I did a close up with the flash on



It's phone quality sooo....

She's lovely! I dont think feeding butterflies is wrong if they are not endangered and/or rare in your area. We have Cabbage butterflies here that are pests so Im helping others by catching them.

I think the butterfly is a "Red Admiral", very common.
