We Don't Always get Rainbows & Butterflies but sometimes....

.....we get butterflies and milk thistle!! This is (I think) a spicebush swallowtail butterfly. A swallowtail none the less. I didn't realize butterflies so thoroughly enjoyed milk thistle! There were many butterflies to be seen this day, but I was most intrigued by this one. Swallow (the butterfly's name =) ) was particularly helpful in my endeavor to get some decent shots (for a slightly older cell phone anyway.)

Hope you've enjoyed meeting Swallow. Have a great day/night my steemians! Keep steemin'
