Lake Siri Odonata

My contribution to eileeninmd's Saturday's Critters #38. This is either an Appalachian or Eastern Tiger Swallowtail. Around here, I usually guess 'Appalachian' if it is big.

Next up: Mr. and Mrs. Blue Dasher:


How about a Widow Skimmer?

Thanks people!

It's a great lake, B^4. I wish we had time to walk down to it. Coming back up the road is fine exercise.

And that's a great link, M.B.
