Those Eastern or maybe Canadian Tiger Swallowtails are "puddling" for sodium and other essential salts needed for reproduction.

We saw them doing the same thing up on the Attwood River system on Guerin Lake. They loved the otter poop. Maybe it was the calcium from the crayfish shells.

I thought that photo was a painting at first. Great photo!

Joy is a great teacher, but so is dispair. Wonder is a great teacher, but so is confusion. Hope is a great teacher, but so is disillusionment. And life is a great teacher, but so is death. To deny yourself any of those in any aspect is not experiencing life totally.
