Cleopatra


Green Hairstreak




Camberwell Beayty






Monarch

That cleopatra there I think is actually a sulphur butterfly of somekind and the Green Hairstreak may be either the Western Green Hairstreak (Callophrys affinis), Calafornia Green Hairstreak (Callophrys affinis perplexa) or Sad Green Hairstreak (Callophrys miserabilis)

OK, the Monarch & Camberwell Beauty are fine, I think the others are, from top to bottom....
