The wonderful world of insects - Scarce swallowtail

in animalphotography •  7 years ago 

Some time ago I started "The Wonderful World of Insects". We have reached the 4th post, today. You can see the first posts here , here and here
Today I have some photos I took last summer. These were the last pictures I made because after my adventure that day, my assistant, Maya, had serious health problems. Running after butterflies, she has reactivated an older discopathy. But that's not what I wanted to talk about here. I want to talk about the butterflies I photographed at the time - ** Scarce swallowtail**
Most butterflies do not live longer than a few weeks so Swallowtail is hard to find in my area. I was very happy when I found it on the Ialomita Valley. It was quite fun photo sesion!
Here are some of the photos I've taken.
