Saturday Squirrel.

Junonia coenia

With our squirrels busy preparing for the coming winter, we can turn the spot light on another campus neighbor. This butterfly, the Common Buckeye, Junonia coenia, was spotted on a daisy outside of the Morris Inn. While bees were about collecting nectar, this butterfly appeared to be doing something different. What was it doing? On being spotted, this butterfly non-verbaled, "Get out of the way. I am catching some rays!"
