Since it was so hot this weekend, I headed out Sunday to look for butterflies. I headed down Spruceton Road to the parking area at Westkill. The road was full of butterflies. Eastern Swallowtails, Black Swallowtails, Red Admirals, White Admirals, Eastern Azures, Cabbage Whites, etc. I didn't have my good camera with me so the pictures are disappointing:


Black Swallowtail


Red Admiral

Here are some other photographs I got on another day:


White Admiral


Spring Azure


Eastern Tailed Blue


Eastern Swallowtail

Nice pictures Mike! Don't think I have seen a Black Swallowtail.
