Two tailed tiger swallowtail and hummingbird moth - 05-24-2009, 08:26 PM


For grins, I have an on going project to find as many different kinds of butterflies in Taylor County as I can. Recently I found the first two tailed tiger swallowtail that I've seen, and also I got my first decent photos of a hummingbird moth.
