As I was riding my bike today, I was on the lookout for the yellow butterflies that love the Joe Pye Weed. I was finally able to some fairly decent photos when I was on the downhill (thank goodness) portion of the ride.
These are Tiger Swallowtail butterflies and they are everywhere which I love. This first photo is a just a picture of Joe Pye Weed after the butterfly flew away. See the color is kind of odd. I guess you could call it a dusty rose.

I love these butterflies! Rain when it's 90 is a gift! I know from the AT!
