Fall Warblers, Butterflies and Dragons

This battled scarred Giant Swallowtail (Papilio Cresphontes) was a refreshing find in addition to the fall Warblers. After chasing him round and round he finally lit upon a bush with his wings open. :)

And Dragons as well.

I remember the first time I saw such a bird. I had no earthly idea what the heck it was until I finally discovered it was either a female or immature Painted Bunting. A far cry from the male counterpart.

The Northern Parula is a striking bird in the fall and in the spring.
