I caught sight of one Monarch Butterfly flying around my deck, so I grabbed my camera to catch an image. To my surprise, there were 2 Monarch Butterflies flying around and nectaring on my Butterfly Bush. Initially, I took a video to get both in flight. I was able to take a few still photographs too. They are absolutely gorgeous. How can you tell the difference between male and female Monarch Butterflies? Is this one a female?
