While photographing another butterfly, this Swallowtail landed and started sipping the sweet nectar of this butterfly bush in my garden. He really didn't care that I was just a few feet away!

Mick Anderson replied:
Hi Jane! Yes, I've got a lot of photos from the top side, but I really like the feel of this angle :) Glad you like it, too!! I'm in the process of capturing a TON of photos in Glacier Park, Montana, and surrounding areas. I'll be uploading within the next few weeks :) SO MUCH to capture here!!!! Hugs to you, dear friend :)
