Another welcome visitor!
I couldn't believe my eyes--two different swallowtails in two days! This lovely "bird" is a Western Tiger Swallowtail (Papilio rutulus). They are a little bigger than the Anise Swallowtail of yesterday. They are so graceful-in flight and feeding on flowers. This one looks brand new, as did yesterday's specimen. The Sweet Williams in the back yard were the food pick today! When we took the kids "butterflying", a favorite experience was to spit on your finger, reach into the net, and let one of these beautiful creatures walk onto your finger and drink! It is a breath-taking experience!
Today I was able to help out a dear friend with a sewing project. Serving others is the best experience, and makes the day so worthwhile!
