Great skipper photos, Muddy, and cool looking moth, Coleup!

I was delighted to have this tiger swallowtail linger in my yard for much of yesterday afternoon. She really enjoyed my Phlox 'Jeana'! There has also been a male tiger swallowtail visiting from time to time, although yesterday I saw that part of his wing was torn. :-( Anyway, hoping for some babies! :-) My serviceberry, spicebush, peach tree, and lilacs should all make good host plants for them.

The bees have been loving the mountain mints and lots of other blooms, too! :-)
