Eastern Tailed Blue

[NateS]

My new milkweeds have attracted their first butterfly.....seems to be an Eastern Tailed Blue which is such a gorgeous butterfly. Apparently my wife saw a swallowtail on the milkweeds while I was at work as well....probably a pipevine swallowtail as their is one that hangs around the house a bit.....hopefully I'll get some shots of him soon.

These next few had an interesting orange glow to them. I believe it is from the light bouncing off the nearby orange milkweed....kind of neat I thought.

NOT a crop of above...

Thanks for looking
