I am a horrible judge of height/distance, etc., but I would hazard a guess at 16+ feet (??) on the black cherry. It's taller than me lol. I have never seen any butterflies around it in particular, but I get lots of butterflies and bees in my yard including eastern swallowtail and the black and blue (don't know the particular name) swallowtail. I haven't seen any yet this year though (the swallowtails - have had a boat load of bees!) I discovered a new mulberry this morning for a tentative total of four. That sounds funny, but I've lived here two years and there are parts of the yard I have not been in yet because it is very grown up on the edges. The black cherry and the mulberry came with the house -- I am pretty sure they planted themselves. This is the butterfly I have seen the most on the scabiosa thus far - taken on Monday:
