Spotted in the field

I threw caution to the wind and stalked this Black Swallowtail through my neighbor's overgrown field. I had one eye on the butterfly and one eye on the ground watching for snakes. I'm happy to report, no snakes were spotted. :0)

Thank you so much for your visits to my project!!! :0)

Fantastic...you must have had a long lens or it would have flitted away. Love it! Glad you had no snakes, too!

Glad you were so brave - it was worth the stalking! Love this shot of the swallowtail - You angle on him shows him off so well.

Beautiful capture. Great composition.

Fantastic clarity and detail - exquisite colors - I would be in heaven to live where I could shoot snakes and butterflies - sadly none of the former and few of the latter live here!

[Thom Mitchell]

Another one I've never seen here. Great shot! And the pursuit being snake-free makes it even better!
