Zebra Swallowtail

MaryBeth Dailey@espyetta posted a Zebra Swallowtail yesterday. We had a conversation about it being Tennessee's state butterfly and that I hadn't gotten a pic of one. I think MaryBeth shared her good luck with me. I finally got one today.

Thank you for your kind responses to yesterday's Twist pic!!! :0)

I have a funny ladybug pic for my other album.

YAY! And it is a great shot of him too! Good, even, lighting ! I struggled with the one I posted due to the dim light on b fly and bright behind. This is great! That is so neat that I saw one, we talked about it, and now you have a photo of one! Super!

[Carolyn White]

@espyetta I give you credit for sharing your luck! It was hard to get a pic. It was on white clover in the grass. Now I know they like clover.

[MaryBeth Dailey]

@cjwhite ah ha! We have tons of clover, but never saw them on that. Oh well, I hope I get more chances with mine!
