FRom swallows to swallowtail butterflies.  This is a moment I wait for each year as soon as our Lilacs come into bloom.I love to see the Swallowtail butterflies feeding on the Lilacs Also this year I have
seen Red Admiral butterflies feeding there.  How beautiful they all are, the Swallowtails and the Red Admirals.

Northern Cloudywing, first skipper of the season

I find them at the same location each year.  They never fail me.  They're there when I go look for them. 'Tis the season.
