The butterfly pavilion is open at the Desert Botanical Garden and I took a stroll through it yesterday. I was surprised to get such good photos of the two swallowtails. They are usually flapping their wings so fast that it's hard to get a good shot. Yesterday they sat perfectly still. The top photo is a Pipevine Swallowtail.
To the left is a monarch.
Above is a Giant Swallowtail and to the right is a White Peacock.
I'm glad I stopped in when I did and caught the butterflies in a cooperative mood.
I have a new post on Sharon's Sojourns today. I'm visiting an Oregon Winery.

Temperatures are dropping here... it's too cold for those lovely butterflies.

Amazing colors, sometimes they just won't sit still
