While at Tosohatchee South this morning we saw some neat butterflies.  Attached are photos of the Zebra swallowtail and Common buckeye butterflies on Yellow bachelor button (Yellow milkwort) flowers.

Thanks Ira and Tim. That little Nikon P530 super zoom camera continues to amaze me with its ability to take good photos ... I get to point the camera. I'm thinking of getting a Canon SX60 HS to replace the Nikon because it has started to have a few issues.
