Gale force winds blew through Ventura this weekend, forcing all manner of creatures to seek shelter from the storm -- including this butterfly, hunkered down in the lawn. It was clearly exhausted; appearing uninjured, it allowed me to get quite close without complaint, only shifting away from my camera when I crossed some imperceptible inter-species boundary of propriety.
