For more information about the species itself, please visit our website Fauna & Flora Photography, Painted Lady (Vanessa cardui)

The Painted Lady is one of the most widespread butterflies, except Australia, South America and Antarctica, and can be spotted usually in warmer areas but migrates North in Spring. Migration patterns are erratic, so that the species doesn’t appear abundantly every year in the Montreal area.
