Description
This is the butterfly (a Zebra Swallowtail) that hooked me forever on chasing and shooting butterflies! My dad gave me one of his favorite books when they were downsizing and it showed the common butterflies of Ohio. I thought it would be cool to try to take a picture of each kind since my garden seemed to be in constant fluttering motion from so many pollinators! Well, I enjoyed this attempt very much, but when I finally had a Zebra Swallowtail visit my yard that was it! I knew why my dad had such a deep love for these little creatures and from that day on, I am excited with every one that crosses my path. I used to share my captures with dad at their new apartment, but now I share their joy with him in real time as he is always with me in my garden with our butterflies!
