Lovely -- I'm worried about the absence of monarchs in my garden. One swallowtail is the only big butterfly I've seen.

Wonderful portrait of this georgous butterfly. Here in Northern Germany the number of butterflies is still extremely low. No idea what happens to them.

@catwoman2 Thank you so much! :) I have not really had very many butterflies in my garden either and I have planted lots of flowers to attract them. I was happy to get this shot! I thought it might be because of the heat. I was out watering just at dark and saw the first humming moths in the garden. I was surprised to see them out so late, guess they are escaping the heat too.
