I don’t normally do this, but a reader, Tzila “Z” Duenzl, a former Big Surian sent me this incredible photo she took recently, and I thought everyone might enjoy it. It is of a “Black Swallowtail” (Papilio polyxenes) butterfly on Marigold flowers.

I really will get my meeting notes up soon. I promise! Working against my usual unforgiving deadlines, but this didn’t take any time at all. (smile)
