Eastern Tiger Swallowtail
I took a drive south to a friend's farm this morning to do some butterflying.
Even though they're only 10 miles south of where I live. I tend to see FOY's
there about a week or so before the same species show up at my place.
Before I had even parked, I saw the first Falcate Orangetip. 3 minutes later, I
saw the Horace's Duskywing. That was it for FOY's at that location. The sun
poked through every now and then but by noon, the cloud layer was solid so I
headed home.
Total for about 1 hour of looking:
Falcate Orangetip (all males) x 4
Horace's Duskywing x 1
Sulphur sp. x 6
I spotted another 7 sulphurs during the drive home.
The ETSW was seen at a neighbor's house.
