The Bordered Patch (Chlosyne lacinia) is a common butterfly across much of the southwestern United States. The top two shots on the left were both taken in Austin, Travis Co., Texas. The top shot was taken in April, 2003, with a Canon 10D and an EF 300mm F/4 L IS lens and a 1.4X extender. The 2nd shot of a pair in copula was taken with a Canon EOS 1D Mark III and EF 300mm F/4 L IS lens and 2X extender in August, 2007.
