Three #photos today. Saw this pipevine #swallowtail flittering around the backyard and eventually it zeroed in on the #pipevine I planted earlier this spring just for this species (its host plant). Captured it alighting on it then depositing a clutch of #eggs. #photography #butterfly #ButterflyPhotography #insects #InsectPhotography #MacroPhotography #BackyardWildlife #nature #gardening
