Tiger

Sorry no 'Fridays at Reynolda Gardens' post this week.  It was too hot to go at lunch, so I decided to go after work again, but did not take into account that it might actually rain on me!  Of course I went anyway, but no butterflies were to be found.  There's always next week!

It's been pretty hot and humid this whole week-end, but today I decided to go to the Tanglewood Butterfly Garden, and it was worth it.  I got my first Eastern Tiger Swallowtail of the season!

 Looks like she has been nipped at.  This is a female, they have more blue near the bottom of their wings.

Then on my way to the car, I saw this Pearl Crescent flitting around the clover.
