Its wings, adorned with intricate patterns of orange and black, create a mesmerizing spectacle that enchants all who behold it. This particular Monarch seems to have embarked on a captivating journey across various landscapes and flowers. From the swamp milkweed to the Bull thistle, Date: 27-07-2021 witnesses its quest for nectar and sustenance amidst nature's bountiful offerings. A testament to its resilience and adaptability is seen in Picture No. 11981394 where Plexippus shares space with fellow winged wonders like the red cracker and doris longwing butterflies.
