Spicebush Swallowtail

These photos of the Spicebush Swallowtails were also taken on the side of the road. I am beginning to think I need to plant some thistle in my yard. (Just kidding!) I orginally had this posted as a Tiger Swallowtail, then changed it to a Pipevine Swallowtail, but I have done a LOT more research and determined it is really a Spicebush Swallowtail.

Tiger Swallowtail - Yellow

Another photo of the yellow Tiger Swallowtail from the side of the road taken the other day. Another one of God's beautiful creations.

Tiger Swallowtail on thistle

This yellow Tiger Swallowtail was on the side of the road. If you stop and take the time to find the beauty around you it is everywhere. I pulled over for another 'photo opportunity', and this is what I found.

Wildflower - Thistle

The name Thistle doesn't usually make most people think 'beautiful', but I think they are. Call me crazy! My neighbor happened by as I was photographing this thistle, and he now thinks I will photograph anything and everything, not just the birds in his yard.
