Description

A tiger swallowtail, on it's way to other places, briefly stops in our garden. I love these butterflies but just don't see as many as I'd like to!

Thanks and much appreciated, Pat, Agnes, Amy, Tammy, Ron, Anita, Sabrina, Margaret, Sam, Melissa G, Monnie, Melissa O and Julianne....and Julianne, I'm, obviously, a nut for butterflies and I plant perennials designed to attract them to my yard...sorta a "If you plant them, they will come" kind of thing! :) #7735119

We are not seeing any butterflies at this time of year so it's nice to see them in your gallery everyday Valarie. Flowers and butterflies make for the most colourful and beautiful images and you do both so well. #7735278
