Wow jmorth has lots of butterflies! I like the Red Admiral on the rudbeckia. I'm so going to lose the photo contest this year.

Ugh! I turned my head and I have a Polydamas that just emerged. Don't they know it rains evey afternoon in Tampa? I'll leave you guys with a picture of the Polydamas I just saw outside a few minutes ago. Polydamas flutter their wings incredibly fast - way faster than the other swallowtails I've seen. So usually my pictures end up being one giant blur. And that's why I raise them - it's my only chance to see them up close and sitting still!
