Yes, that's usually the easier way to tell. Here's a chart showing other differences that I found interesting. Your pictures are beautiful.

Never been to the one in Gainville, but enjoyed the buttefly house in the Keys, and one in London's Kew Gardens. I took Gracie's advice and ventured into other forms of photographty, having started with skies, and the many beautiful places throughout TV. Life is an adventure, eh?

These butterflies are all in the skipper family. That is one of the hardest to identify.
