Description
well its a treat for me ..Ive never seen one of these ever in my life .. I was photographing and thinking ( I cant see without glasses on too well ) ..this is strange ..its a really light yellow Monarch butterfly ...when I got home and checked my photos out then I saw the belly of yellow and black stripes ... I didnt know what it was so I checked google for it and found out ... I think they are so pretty .. the caterpillar for these butterflies are really cool also . . it looks like they they have eyes lol

a wonderful picture!!!!!!!
So very pretty; and a definite treat for me as well! Even though the summer has come; believe it or not, I have not encountered even one of these, much less a butterfly! So very pretty and precious an insect.... I do love the flowers as well, most interesting type! Exceptional colours and presentation!
they can be seen here occasionally but I have only seen maybe 20 times.they use to fly by my house but never would land. stunning macro
Wow beautiful i love this pic.
I haven't seen one either, so thankyou for this beautiful butterfly!!!!

Amazing close-up!!!!!!!
I used to see these all the time as a child, not so much now. Beautiful capture!
GORGEOUS! What a great surprise you had!
Lucky you! Great compo, Clive
Glad you found it. Excellent Lu!
A gorgeous capture of this butterfly we call 'machaon' in the French language. There used to be plenty of them around home when I was a child, but they gradually disappear, owing to the general use of pesticides in the neighbouring fields in the countryside. This species has become extremely rare nowadays, which is sad...This is a superb shot you've done here, of this tiger swallowtail.
You caught it so beautifully..well done!!
