Red-spotted Purple Butterfly

Limenitis arthemis astyanax

As an evolutionary defense mechanism against predators, this nonpoisonous species mimics the poisonous pipevine swallowtail butterfly in appearance, with which it usually shares the same geographical area. It is a great example of batesian mimicry.

Greek Anemone

Anemonoides blanda

Remnants of a long abandoned Victorian era garden, these beautiful deep purple flowers are now growing as a naturalized small population in hillside woods overlooking the Mississippi River. Although they're not native to this region, they're thankfully not one of the several invasive species taking over the local ecosystem.
