I’m not sure they were actually dancing :-), but it sure looked that way when this cluster of butterflies fluttered around my yard most of the day today. At times there were up to a dozen or more all flying together, sipping from my flowers, landing in the grass and in the edge of the woods. I couldn’t resist taking dozens of photos of these beautiful yellow and black swallowtails.

I would love to be able to see something happening like this… I might see the odd one now and then… maybe two.. but neverthis many and never stopping long enough for me to get a great shot like this off.

Tom, seeing so many of the same type together like that– they were just asking to be photographed! :)
