I'm joining Camera Critters today to share a visitor to Musashi's Garden.
The Giant Swallowtail Butterfly

A really big dude!
He stayed in the garden for quite awhile giving me a chance to grab the camera, run out the door,
and without scaring him away, take a few shots.

Love the close up of the face...the eyes and the angle of that one best of all. But, they're, each one...perfect.

Especially like that second shot with th flower. Can never get a decent butterfly shot because of all the flitting! Maybe they're calmer in the heat?
