Butterflies Are Free to Fly

Butterflies are one of my favorite bug "subjects". A few days back I was trying to get good photos of a Black Swallowtail, and especially trying to get it with a Yellow Swallowtail that it was sometimes hanging out with. I managed a couple decent shots of the Yellow, and none worth showing here of the Black. For one of the photos I tried to take of the two together, I was a hair too slow on the shutter, and the Yellow was flying away.
