I was out in my garden doing some watering when this bright yellow butterfly went fluttering by. She was very interested in the daylilies!
I decided to pull out my phone and observe.
She decides to land on a daylily:
Full of pollen, decides to get a closer look…
Deep dive!
Pretty sure this is a female Eastern tiger Swallowtail because of the touch of blue showing on those folded hindwings.
It was too hot for me to keep standing there watching her. She was still burrowed in there when I left!
I love watching butterflies and think they’re magickal. When I looked at the pictures I thought I’d share with the Coven. I hope they give you a smile!
