Our First Eastern Comma Butterfly. Thank goodness it was not a monarch butterfly. Way too early, I don't have any milkweed for her to lay egg on. Thank goodness. 😅

Eastern Commas have a rapid, erratic flight. They startle with a flash of orange and then seem to disappear as they settle with closed, leaf-like outer wings. They are often observed sipping moisture and nutrients from damp soil or perching on a tree trunk. Commas generally feed from ripe fruit, carrion, or dung but will nectar at flowers when these food sources are in short supply. Eastern Commas have a rapid, erratic flight.

The Eastern Comma butterfly came out early and blends in perfectly with the dried leaf litter when its wings are closed
