Clodius Parnassian

Clodius Parnassian
This is a butterfly we see rather frequently in the North Cascades. This example was photographed at Lake Elizabeth and the flowers it is feeding from are of the Sticky Asphodel. The inset photo shows the same butterfly and the red-orange spots on the underside of the hind-wings.
