Swallowtail Butterfly

Photo taken in Our Garden August 24th 2012
Last Friday afternoon I spent some time happily chasing Swallowtail Butterflies amongst the Lucerne in our garden trying to get some photos. The links will take you to my post on News From Italy where I have shared a selection of the results. If you have time do call by there and let me know what you think by leaving a comment, I will happily pay you a return visit. I am also linking this post to three memes today.

  6. One of my favorite flutters! We have them in the USA and this year I have not yet seen one. Have several pictures from years prior. I'm always chasing them with the camera too! Lovely!

  9. Great capture, Lindy! Hope you're getting some much needed rain that will really make a difference to the land, but not do any damage.

Welcome to my photography blog, where I share the world as seen through my lens. All commenter's will receive a visit back from me but no longer individual replies unless you have a question, which I will respond to here. Your praise and kind words are always appreciated but to keep saying thankyou to you all individually, in an original way is not easy. So I am saying it here instead, a massive thankyou from my heart for all the wonderful support, your comments are a great encouragement to me.
