Obs. made from 2:40 till 4:40, mostly sunny 84 degrees with 12mph S winds. Was nice to get both of the orange & black royalties back to back within seconds. Black Swallowtails were male and female. Female was just outside the butterfly garden. Male was nectaring on a nice red & white clover patch in the fenced in pumping station area.
