We found lots of caterpillars on the dill which meant lots of butterfly hatching this year.
The first of the bunch was a Eastern Black Swallowtail.
My favorite part about Eastern Black Swallowtails are the teeny pin pricks of vibrant blue at the base of their wings.
And also the faces they elicit from Ineke.
I love butterflies. These pictures are really beautiful.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful.
ReplyDeleteAnd, oh, Ineke!
How can anyone not love her looking at these pictures?!
