The Tiger Swallowtail.is one of the most beautiful butterflies to be found in the United States. This is a male. The female would show a band of blue between the black margin and the main yellow area of the lower wing.
Sue and I arrived back in Tulsa about 6:00 this evening and deposited Molly and Will back with Sue's daughter and son-in-law. We were all pleased to be home and back to familiar beds. We had a very nice week. Sue was surrounded by six of her grandchildren and I was able to take an embarrassing number of excellent photographs which I will be happy to share with you as the days go by

Beautiful photo! Great macro shot.
What a lovely butterfly. Great capture.
Don't be embarrassed about the number of photogrqaphs taken - your red face is our pleasure:-)
Love this picture.
Hiya Bill,
I really enjoyed this picture. The marigolds so subtle and that butterfly complements is beautifully.
Perfect placement of the yellow butterfly with your yellow marigolds. Lovely. (I almost posted the same butterfly for Mellow Yellow Monday, until another idea came to me, and then even that was changed by the natural course of events.)
A very pleasing photograph here.
Love this photo...beautiful butterfly.
What a gorgeous shot! Glad you made it home safely.
Quel plaisir, n'est-ce pas, que de retrouver Smokey et son LIT ????!!!!
Bisous.
That's a beauty of a capture! Grrreat shot!
My goodness, he is magnificent, isn't he? Nice shot, too!
lovely butterfly!
Lovely!
I took amazing pictures of butterflies (not bragging, I was surprised myself!) in Brazil. Since then, I've been trying to take other pictures of Canadian butterflies but they won't stay still. Brazilian ones wouldn't move, I guess it made my life easier!
Very nice!
This reminds me of one of my old pictures except I didn't have any flowers in it.
