Butterfly Spotting: The question mark butterfly gets its name from the shiny silver question mark on its hindwing. Like other angelwings this butterfly is an orange-brown color with dark markings and its wings are jagged. The question mark is the largest of all the angelwings.

Backyard Tip: You might think of the question mark as the scavenger of the butterfly world. Their menu often includes fruit, tree sap, dung and carrion. In a pinch this butterfly can be seen taking advantage of the nectar from such flowers as milkweed, aster and sweet pepperbush.
