However Thursday at Sheldon Lake this Red Admiral butterfly was happy to find a damp spot in a replanted parking lot ditch.
The Red Admiral was just where you would expect to find it because the butterflies prefer moist habitats such as lakes, marshes and drainage ditches.

| The Red Admiral likes to spend the winter in South Texas, according to Texas Parks and Wildlife Department. |

| Red Admirals like to feed on nettles. They also like milkweed, mint, alfalfa, aster, phlox, coreopsis and clove. For nectar they like tree sap and rotten fruit. |
