Beautiful. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks, Ralph!
What a delight to see this marvelous yellow butterfly against the bright purple flowers!
Yes, it was a pretty combination of colors!
This has been a big year for Swallowtails around us, but the eruption of Monarchs from last year has kind of petered out as those have been few and far between - last year they were everywhere!
Good to know it's a good year for swallowtails there too. Our milkweed are blooming, but no Monarchs here.
