It's probably some kind of destructive potato killer, or something, though - would be just my luck!<BR/><BR/>Hilary - I just looked at yours, and I think you're right about it being a Tiger Swallowtail, but I think it is a Canadian Tiger Swallowtail. It seems to have more blue on it's tail. Of course, I haven't a clue how to link to where I found a photo of butterflies in Alberta, but I'll see what I can do...<BR/>(how'd you do that, anyway?)the Bag Ladyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17434610508260994331noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8329622951839766826.post-70086762858698980982008-06-25T14:15:00.000-06:002008-06-25T14:15:00.000-06:00I love those photos, Baggie.

Butterflies are one of my two favourite insects.. dragonflies being the other (no duh after today's post).<BR/><BR/>You're in luck about that yellow one. It looks like the same one I photographed back in July of last year. When I looked it up, I discovered it to be an Appalachian Tiger Swallowtail.
