I know very little about them (never saw many in Oregon), but just in trying to photograph them for this blog, I found out several things. Some of them don't care to be photographed, whereas others do not seem to mind. Some feed with their wings folded, some with wings open. Some appear damaged and obviously on their last legs (wings), whereas others are brilliantly colored and "new". They all have their preferences as to flowers, but I find it interesting that the native butterfly bush (Buddleia marrubifolia) is totally ignored in favor of the non-native one (Buddleia davidii).
