A Brief Butterfly Interlude

So Iguazu Falls was pretty incredible. But before I post about that…I took enough butterfly pictures to warrant its own post. I am not sure why there were so many butterflies at the falls. It might be that this was a standard tropical sampling of butterflies, or the mist of the falls might create a higher diversity of plants that require butterfly symbiotes. But I have never seen so many. This is only a small sample.

This one looked like a leaf and traveled around on Guillermo's hat for several minutes. It was very cool, though I can't say much for its taste in hats.

And I saw this enormous moth at my hotel, but it kind of fit the Lepidopteran theme.
