Old World Swallow Tail

Thanks dotun55: this one is a bit less easy to find and photograph, at least in my area (Belgium). This year was an unusually good summer and we could see many more butterflies like this one around..I hope next year will also be like that :-)

Good to see

Thanks turqouisekillerwhale! :-)

That's beautiful! And I completely agree with Suzanne Monk.

Many thanks for your kind words, Suzanne!

Wowza. Let me add my voice to the din ... what beautiful butterfly photos you've been taking lately!

Thanks Sarala and the others!
Is another beauty I was anxious to photograph but that until now had proved very elusive to me :-)

Very nice

Thanks, MartinH :-)

Beautiful!

Thanks Agnes, Radha and Jemma, too! :-)

Lovely spotting there Marta!

Thanks, Neil! I was very happy to be able to make some pics of this species because in the past years they have been scarce in our area and always moving too fast. The plant makes the trick. It attracts all kinds of butteflies and moths :-)

A lovely series, Marta. What a beautiful butterfly. Well done on a great spotting :-)
