Gorgeous Black Swallowtail Butterfly At Fort Hill On Cape Cod

This Black Swallowtail butterfly was pretty elusive as I was chasing it at Fort Hill on Cape Cod. I would see it flit around and land and, by the time I got to it, it flew away again.

The Black Swallowtail is a large butterfly, measuring 2 1/2 to 3 1/2.” It is overall black with iridescent blue, yellow  and orange markings.

I was only able to get one photograph of it.  What a beautiful butterfly!

    1. Thanks, Linda! Sometimes I’m surprised at what you can see when you really look a photograph! You have no idea when you’re taking it. It’s way cool!
