End of summer butterfly

The blooming butterfly bush is a busy place, but it also signifies that summer is coming to an end.If you love butterflies,you will also enjoy my friend Kristina's @flutterby22 photo of a gravid female Black Swallowtail.She caught her in flight after just laying an egg!!!! Can you find the egg on the parsley? http://365project.org/flutterby22/365/2013-08-19
