Even with the torn wing - this is special. A lovely capture.

They manage to fly even without parts of their wings ... still a beautiful specimen.

Looks like life's hard even for butterflies! Great one!

How sad this picture makes me feel :( Great capture tho!

Kind of sad, but it's still getting that delicious nectar!

I guess this little beauty doesn't know her dress is torn. She's still wonderfully happy on that flower.

nicely shot; her wings look a bit raggedly, but she's beautiful nonetheless...

Exquisite shot in her raggedness.

These guys will begin to appear in their new suits around here very soon... I can't wait.
