The garden is alive with flying and buzzing creatures. This one was nice enough to sit still for a moment. Just a moment...

You and the Outlaw both have beautiful creature pix this morning which is something I don't seem to be able to capture visually.
ReplyDeletePure luck on my part.
DeleteNice! I see swallowtails flitting through my garden all the time, but they never stay still long enough for me to get close with the camera.
ReplyDeleteI don't remember seeing many at all in the past. This year seems extra good.
DeleteWell done!
ReplyDeleteMerci!
DeleteFlying flowers they are and purty ones to boot; too bad they won't sit around and pose but you got a great picture!
ReplyDelete"Flying flowers"...how have I never heard that before?
DeleteNice shot! I'm with Linda. For the life of me, I can't seem to take a decent picture of either butterfly or dragon fly. For some reason, bees are kinder to my attempts this year. Still trying, though...
ReplyDeleteUsually dragon flys are my thing, haven't had the camera in hand much for them this year though.
Deletethe tiger swallowtails are thick as thieves this summer.
ReplyDeleteAh, so it's not just here in my garden?
DeleteI only see White Butterflies around, those that are laying eggs in cabbage... Do you plant specifically to encourage the Swallowtail to stop by?
ReplyDeleteI wish I could claim to be that good. No...
