Butterfly Shapes

Going back to the end of July @ Asbury Woods (Millcreek Twp, Pennsylvania – “Since 1800”) with lovely butterflies on flowers. All shots Eastern Tiger Swallowtail (Papilio glaucus) on Milk Thistle (Silybum marianum) or Wild Teasel (Dipsacus fullonum) unless noted otherwise.

    Love the shots with details of the wings! Thistles are always lovely to see with BF enjoying lunch! Interesting variety of plants. I believe there was a teesal in one of the photos???
