Hooray - Another Swallowtail

I spotted the Eastern Tiger Swallowtail on our very sparse butterfly bush early this afternoon - what a pleasant surprise.

Beautiful butterfly. Did you know Milanie, that if you cut off the dead flower heads as they finish, and prevent them going to seed they are supposed to keep producing new flowers till later into the season.
I don't always get round to it.
