I was happy to find this Swallowtail. Last year butterflies were very scarce. There seem to be a few more around this year.

Just a beautiful close-up with very fine, sharp image and a great background. I like the sharpness and detail in this image, Cindy.

beautiful - well taken and glad they are increasing for you.
Here in the UK there were more in general last year, but some varieties are still doing well.

l've never taken a butterfly photo, Cindy.
Your shot is excellent and detailed with the
butterfly's proboscis unwound and busy sucking up the nectar.
