A pretty specimen that liked to sit on my window sill. He'd always fan out because the sun was prominent there.
I like to raise butterflies =3
Viceroy's are monarch look alikes, because unlike a monarch, viceroys are tasty. So copying the monarch makes them less likely to be eaten. How to tell the diff? Viceroys have less black vein lines than a monarch.
Also, again like the monarch, you can tell the difference between male and female because of the pheromone pockets on the end wings (the two black dots). Only males carry these pockets to attract females.
