Butterflies are some of the most colorful members of the insect family. They can often be photographed while resting and feeding on plants and wildflowers. This endangered Taylor's Checkerspot( Euphydryas editha taylori) was photographed on a Common Yarrow alongside the Iron Bear Trail in Wenatchee National Forest, Washington State, USA.

Callophrys rubi is a fairly scarce resident in the Netherlands. Until 1960, numbers were more or less stable., but between 1960 and 1970, they dropped by half. Inland, the species mainly occurs on the sandy soils in the eastern part of the Country; here, it is becoming rarer.\nHabitat: The Green Hairstreak is mostly found at woodland edges near Heathland, but also in woodland clearings, on nutrient poor, flower-rich grasslands, calcareous grasslands, and fallow land., where it uses a variety of larval food plants.\nFlight season: The species flies in one long generation from early May until early July.\n\nThis Picture is made during a long weekend in the Eifel (Germany) in June 2019.

Brenthis daphne, the marbled fritillary, is a butterfly of the family Nymphalidae.\nDescription:\nBrenthis daphne has a wingspan of 30–44 millimeters. Wings are rather rounded, the basic color of the upper side of the forewings is bright orange, with an incomplete black marginal band. The underside of the hindwings have a yellowish postdiscal band and the marginal area is completely suffused with purple, with a marble effect (hence the common name).  The quadrangular patch on the underside hindwing is partially shaded orange pink to outer side. The chrysalis has two dorsal rows of thorns with bright spots and a bright metallic shine.\nThis species is very similar to the lesser marbled fritillary (Brenthis ino), but the latter is slightly smaller and the coloration of said patch is completely yellow.\nBiology:\nThe butterfly flies from late May to early August depending on the location. The eggs are laid separately in July on the leaves of the host plants. The larvae feed on brambles (Rubus fruticosus), raspberry (Rubus idaeus), Rubus caesius, Rubus sachalinensis, Sanguisorba officinalis and Filipendula species, while adults usually feed on nectar from brambles, thistles and other flowers. This species is univoltine. It overwinters at the caterpillar stage in the egg shell. \nDistribution and habitat:\nThis widespread species is present in the Palearctic ecozone from the southern parts of the continental Europe (northern Spain, southern France, Germany, Italy and eastwards to Slovakia and Greece), up to Caucasus, western Siberia. It prefers warm and sunny forest edges, woodland and bushy areas where the host plants grow, at an elevation of 75–1,750 meters above sea level (source Wikipedia).\n\nThis Picture is made during a Vacation in Bulgaria in May 2018.
