I was thrilled to bits this morning, on a walk at Bowmont Park (Maranatha Church entrance), when this gorgeous Tiger Swallowtail butterfly flew near us. Of course, it is missing an antenna and a "tail", but the colours and patterns are still beautiful! After disappointment when it flew off before I could get a photo, it then landed on a nearby tree - and just sat there! couldn't believe it - I never see these butterflies land, or if they do, then it always seems to be high up in a tree. Today, I was able to approach fairly close. Now there is one less thing on my "Wish List", LOL! At the top of my list, a Blue Jay close-up remains number one!
