Butterflies were abundant here every day.  What I have found in AZ is that the butterflies rarely stop to nectar and so it's really hard to get any pictures let alone great ones.  I saw many swallowtails which are most probably Spicebush as that's their most common swallowtail,many other whites and yellows.  One of the highlights were 2 Gulf Fritillaries laying eggs on the tendrils of the passion flower plant.
