Butterflies

A black swallowtail landed on the Solomon's seal, but didn't give me quite enough time for a photo.  The usual cabbage white mad the rounds.  What I thought was a painted lady landed on the nandina in an awkward spot I couldn't get in focus.  

A pair of mallards found the pool.  I yelled at them but when K shook the pool net at them they left.  Meanwhile, a crow landed, hopped down to the top step and had a drink not ten feed from me.  Clearly those birds do not see me as much of a threat.  

The brown thrasher pair and a mockingbird were lured back for barkbutter balls.
