IMG_2895 9 Eastern Tiger Swallowtail (Papilio glaucus) nectaring Lamiaceae, Bee Balm (Mornarda fistulosa)
Eastern Tiger Swallowtail (Papilio glaucus) nectaring Lamiaceae, Bee Balm (Mornarda fistulosa), 6/6/2017, The Landing's Sparrow Field, "Pollinator Garden Berm", Skidaway Island, Savannah, Chatham Co, Ga.
I love this beautiful butterfly on Bee Balm. I shot a long confirmation image then moved up close and personal, digitally capturing the fresh wing scales of this recently emerged swallowtail as I sat upon my portable stool with macro lens mounted on tripod!
I was literally surrounded with pollinating bees and wasp as I slowly readjusted amongst the tangent nectar sources.
Dare was a whole lotta buzzen and nectaring going on out dare!!!
I hope you enjoy these 6 images. I had a great deal of pleasure being out and amongst all the pollinators.
