This blue swallowtail butterfly was found in the parking lot of the Lake Higgins Marina. They are usually found in forests and there is a nature trail right beside the marina. The underneath part, the part visible when they are perched on a flower is black with orange spots. If you are able to spend time outside, observing nature, you will find many great living things, like butterflies.
Today is the first of the month, so for the worldwide, City Daily Photo community, the theme is the color blue. Blue is for the blue swallowtail, whose habitat covers much of North America, especially where the pipevine plant is found. Happy Monday, happy getting outside to enjoy nature!
The swallow tail is gorgeous Janis, how perfect for the theme 💙
