Common and Not Common

This is a Wood-Nymph ... actually the full name is a Common Wood-Nymph. The colors in this photo are just stunning.

Extra Eyes

This is a Common Wood Nymph Butterfly. I have seen a couple of them this year but this is the best photo I have been able to capture. Love all the eyes.

Two Nymphs

Two photos of two different Common Wood-Nymph. The difference? Lighting .. and one is slightly out of focus. One taken by me, one by Teresa.

Wood Nymph

This is a Common Wood Nymph Butterfly. We usually see them earlier in the spring. This one landed on the hiking path. I love the rich brown color.

I really wanted to capture a photo with his wings openned but no such luck. Next time!

Common Wood

We have seen a large number of [Wood-nymph Butterflies](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Common_wood-nymph) this week. I love the patterns in their wings. In the right lighting you can get some intereeting colors too. ~ Rick
