Description
Hi Everyone, here is a butterfly I had never managed to find here before today. It was a sunny though very breezy day. I took upwards of fifteen photos of this one as it flew flower to flower in the wind. I chose this one over the rest to share here in the gallery. It was fun and I hope some enjoy seeing it. A half hour after the photo the field was mowed clean- no flowers for this fellow to land on. Thanks for the look and any comment you care to type. -GB-

PRECIOSA IMAGEN.
wonderful shot!
Lovely portrait! One of my favorite butterflies!
the delicate antenna is so well seen... excellent capture.
Beautiful capture and detail. You beat the mowing crew for a fantastic catch. Dana
Absolutely beautiful shot. You were quite lucky, glad you got it.
Beautiful shot! Too bad the clover had to be mowed down.
A stunning capture my friend.
Great shot with the proboscis well into the flower! He's almost a perfect specimen too and the antennae are even lined up, but he is missing one leg, probably a work-site accident!
its beautiful .. I saw a tiger swallowtail yesterday .. I have never seen one of those in my life! I was thrilled ! actually I didnt know what it was until I got home I had to look it up ... I thought it was a Monarch until I looked at the belly part
