Christmas in July - _TNY_0297

This butterfly on a fake (and very pink!) flower at the Haga Ocean butterfly house in Stockholm, Sweden, is a citrus swallowtail (Papilio demodocus) or lime swallowtail.

 

For some reason it is also known as the Christmas butterfly which doesn't really fit perfectly with this shot being taken in early July, but hey, at least it was pretty!
