While PF was processing some of his pictures from my garden, I found a tiger swallowtail. He was only there for about a minute and then he was gone. Haven't seen him since. :scratch

    Great catch Nightengale. I have never seen a Tiger Swallowtail before. So are you doing all the work in the garden and then Pathfinder gets to reap the rewards rolleyes1.gif? I hope to see more shots from your garden in the future.

    No I have my own with a lizard lens (120-300) so I can get closer. I may have to fight him for the macro lens. rolleyes1.gif

    How many photographers does it take to change a light bulb? 50. One to change the bulb, and forty-nine to say, "I could have done that better!"
