I saw this butterfly landing on yarrow up at Camp Handy while out backpacking in the Olympic National Forest. Was glad it stayed around long enough for a photo or two. (confession: I had to look up the identification in a book on my return home)

It took a while to wait for this butterfly to land where its wings were open facing me. I figured it was a little camera shy.
