Spicebush Swallowtail Butterfly
« on: June 24, 2007, 07:17:46 PM »
This pretty little thing was fluttering around my impatients on the deck Friday.  It stayed for a long time, so I decided to go in and get the camera.  It posed for a couple of pics and flew away.

Oh, really Tim.........I didn't do much reading on it, just enough to find out what kind.  That's kind of cool.
