Now that the puppies are 2 weeks old (hard to believe), they are now on a 3-hr feeding schedule which gives me enough time between feedings to actually leave the house for things like grocery shopping, lawn-mowing and, for fun, stalking the backyard butterflies including a male and female Spicebush Swallowtail. These guys are hard to shoot because they don't stay on the flowers all that long and it's hard to get close to them. But, for some reason, today this guy let me get fairly close and seemed inclined to hang out with me. First, a side view.



And a 3/4 from the rear. Jim Poor, I think it's OK to shoot them from this angle if they're not show butterflies smile.



Hope you enjoy viewing these as much as I enjoyed shooting them.
