A worldwide community photographing and learning about wildlife
Project Noah Nature School
The larger butterfly is Papilio glaucus (Eastern Tiger Swallowtail). FYI.
Love these guys. Most of the time I try to avoid politics in this community but these guys are really targets of some of the most horrific animal cruelty imaginable for the fur trade. Hard for me to look into their eyes the same way after some of the videos that I have seen of their suffering.
Excellent shot, and great to see one in the wild!
Agreed. Can't be glaucus, could be machaon.
That's a Papilio (Swallowtail) for sure. Will see if I can come up with an ID.
I'm going for Butler's Gartersnake (Thamnophis butleri).
WOW...red, white, and blue!
Man Gale...your flickr example illustrates the principal that no matter how good your photo is, there is always one that is better! Thanks for sharing.
Pacific Tree Frog or Columbia Spotted Frog?
Excellent shot!
