Here is another new-to-me visitor to my garden – a Dingy Swallowtail Butterfly. At first, I thought it was a grapevine moth but only when it finally settled did I realize my error. This lone butterfly is a large one, so I was somewhat surprised to discover it is also called a Small Citrus Butterfly. It constantly fluttered its wings and zoomed about. But, I eventually got a few images on the Nikon D3000.
