We were in Fort Stockton over the weekend and I carved out some time to wander through a pasture to take some photos, and then snapped a few at the nursery owned by my brother and his wife.
Since the pasture was once part of the Permian Sea, can we call this mesquite stump “driftwood”?
No, this is not what you think. It’s a rock, and the pasture is littered with them. Growing up, we thought they were pieces of meteorites but I now realize how silly that was. They’re obviously fragments from a crashed alien spacecraft.
I think this is a Cloudless Sulphur
I’m more certain that this is a Gulf Fritillary.
This is a different view of the Gulf Fritillary shown above.
