Aurora, male  NF Photo 090512

I have been searching for the female for several years. Today I finally found her. And was lucky enough to get shots. I was biking when I saw her. Thought she looked a little different from what I usually see. And I was so happy when I saw the undersides were mottled green and white . Aurora, YES! The photo of the male is from 090512

Not many butterflies are flying but at least I got this one. I wonder if the hard winter killed them all? It was too cold when they were supposed to wake up.
