I usually go spotting with a friend. You look less silly if there are two of you running in circles.
I'm having the same problem with Black swallowtails here. They don't like to stay put long, and cover a lot of ground. I must look like an idiot chasing them around sometimes!
Thanks; they were not lighting for long, but there were several to chase.
What a beauty! Nice spot! I particularly like number three. :)
