Went down to the banks of the Tennessee River planning on shooting landscape shots to try out some new ND filters. Upon arriving there were hundreds of butterflies flying and landing on the mud and sand banks. The ND filter shots had to wait.

I was trying to get detail in the butterflies, so the ones you see in the photo are just a small part of the group. There were many more groups present. A few more group shots are below.
