This is a digital photograph of a Pipevine Swallowtail Butterfly (Battus philenor). It is a bit the worse for wear though, and the swallowtail part is missing. A viewer corrected me on the identification of this one. I had originally identified it as a Spicebush Swallowtail, going by the little booklet that the butterfly garden handed out, which in this case, was incorrect. (This is a different picture from Pipevine Swallowtail I, though similar, but I couldn’t decide which one I liked more, so I am posting this one as well.)

This is a fantastic shot, even if it is a tad bit beat up. The coloring on these is breathtaking. I love that teal shade.

Welcome :) If I rememeber correctly I believe you said you also like purple, and this teal would go perfectly with the colors of purple in your avatar.

It would indeed, but I don't feel inclined to change my avatar right now. Getting all the butterflies ready for posting has worn me out. *wry smile*

Oh thats ok I wasn't suggesting it :) I just meant that teal and purtple always go together rather well.
