Lovely image, Bud. We should all be thankful that butterflies spend so much time around beautiful plants and flowers. Congrats on your latest POTD.

An excellent macro of this swallowtail with lovely detail as it is receiving some nourishment from the beautiful lilac bush. Congrats on your POTD today, Bud!
