Giant Swallowtail (Papilio Cresphontes) Aug. 4th, 2017

Today at the nature center I was so lucky to find three different butterflies, all fairly rare in this part of Michigan and all were around me while I was photographing.

Es war eine wunderschoene Ueberraschung heute, gleich zwei dieser herrlichen und allergroessten Schmetterlinge hier in Michigan zu sehen. Ich konnte etliche Fotos machen, beide flogen zu verschiedenen Blumenarten. Aber ich hab auch noch zwei andere Schmetterlinge zur gleichen Zeit sehen koennen. Ich werd gleich die Namen hinzufuegen.

So rich and beautiful. Unusual view of the underside of the nicely sharp butterfly.

I was only a few inches away when I took this shot. Thank you very much for your feedback, micritter.
