Earlier
this week, Curtis Fox grabbed a shot of this beautiful
butterfly in the first picture. Then on Friday, Doug Brooks
sent a picture of one very similar.
These butterflies are female Eastern Tiger Swallowtail. The
gender is apparent by their coloring as only the females
feature the blue on their hind wings or the tail area.
Females do come in a variety of shades including a nearly
black butterfly with "ghost" tiger stripes on the forewing. |
The
females with the bright yellow and black tiger stripe are the most
notable. These butterflies have the ability to become quite large
with a mature wingspan of up to five inches.
And here's an interesting fact to think about. The males prefer
females with bright yellow, but it is the dark females that live
longer. Hmmm.
Thanks to both Curtis and Doug for the lovely photos.
