Ken and I saw lots of butterflies on our recent trip to Eastern Washington, and I could really not identify any of them to species. Ken helped, I bought a new butterfly ID book when I got home, and so here are a few we saw, some with species names, others look great but remain nameless. Enjoy.

Good birding, and good butterfly watching as well. Good day!
