One of my favorite butterflies is the red spotted purple. This cousin to the viceroy is one of two subspecies of the red spotted admiral, the other subspecies being the white admiral. Numbers of red spotted purples normally peak in the fall in most of its range in the eastern US. This is a a strange butterfly and so are its caterpillars! Learn all about them in this video.

Hope you enjoy it and let me know what you think!

Thanks,
Anthony

Wonderful video. Butterflies, moths, have to be among the most beautiful in colour combos in the natural world. Butterflies also have the coolest names . Too bad other critters often have such boring names. Not butterflies.

Great video, thanks Anthony.

Sharon - butterflies do have some cool names, so do their caterpillars.
