[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
The butterfly species Danaus plexippus is commonly known as the monarch butterfly. It is perhaps the most well-known of all North American butterflies. Since the 19th century, it is also found in New Zealand, and in Australia. In Australia it is sometimes known as the wanderer butterfly. In Europe it is resident in the Canary Islands and Madeira, and is found as a migrant in Russia, Azores, Sweden and Spain.
This photo was taken at the Canary Islands.

Cheers Cris

Hi Christian,
Good colours and a nice composition. Makes a change to see this species from the Canary Islands instead of the USA. Thanks.
