Breakfast...! A Tiger Swallowtail stopped for nectar!

This pretty swallowtail just dropped in...spent some time with the irises and continued on his/her way.

Hi Irish..Usually the only butterfly I see is the Monarch.....so far I've had this tiger Swallowtail, the little eightspotted Forester moth, and the Azure blue butterfly...and last year I would have said ...oh pretty butterfly...and carried on...this year I can greet them by their names...thanks to goY and members like Diohio...I'm really enjoying all aspects of the garden this year.
