These pictures show part of the mating ritual of the Giant Swallowtails. The pictures aren't great, the butterflies were in constant motion.

These pictures were all taken at the Tampa Bay Nursery, owned and operated by two of the nicest people you could meet.

Hey KayJones, I think I would do more than fly away if she PHOTGRAPHED and POSTED ON THE INTERNET my mating ritual!
