Finally got a butterfly to pose for me. And I even was able to Identify it as a Red Admiral from http://www.gardenswithwings.com/identify-butterflies.html
I was standing back by my wood burning barrel when I see see this black butterfly constantly landing on the same branch stuck in the barrel. I didn't notice the broken wing until doing this post.
Cropped from the photo above
This was the only good photo I could get with it's wings opened. Every time it landed it would close its wings and just stay that way till it fluttered off again.
