We use to have several of these butterfly bushes and they sure do live up to their name. Gorgeous royal color this one has and that swallowtail is finding its treaure of nectar. Such a beautiful creature. Love the scene Michhelle.

I have yet to see a butterfly this year, other than those small sulphurs that never seem to land on anything for more than a second. LOL. This is beautiful, Michelle! #10776754

Beautiful shot of both the butterfly bush and swallowtail! All the butterfly bush out here looks pretty ratty about now. Of course, a lot of vegetation out here looks ratty this time of year. #10777235
