   Yup. Butterflies have no taste. I have seen them on everything from rotting fruit to carrion. Not pretty. But easy to forget (and forgive) when you see them in the flowers.

   Yep. I have a few of a viceroy on otter poop. But you know, dogs eat poop and we let them give us kisses. Lol, just sayin…

   As always great shots steve!

   If you didn’t know what you were looking at in that last photo, it would be a really beautiful butterfly.

   The seeds in the poop look like persimmon seeds. I often see fox poop with them in it, especially this time of year.
