Eastern Black Swallowtail


My friends and I took yesterday off and went shooting today at Boca Ciega Millenium Park in Seminole, FL today instead.

We looked for the Chuck-will's-widow bird, but didn't find her. I was hoping to catch a glimpse of the chicks.

Instead, we busied ourselves with butterflies. This is an Eastern Black Swallowtail on Plumbago. These butterflies never stop fluttering their wings, so I boosted up the ISO to 400 which gave me a faster shutter speed to be able to capture this gorgeous butterfly.
