I've seen other Swallowtails but this is my first capture of the giant variety. Talk about fluttering butterflies, these guys are almost non-stop flutterers.

Thank you, my kind Flickr friends, for all your comments and faves. Truly appreciated!

What is it like to sit on a flower with a butterfly? What if my whole life purpose has been to ask and answer that question?

This is one of endemic and endangered species butterfly to Taiwan. It only can be met during July to September in the mountain above 1,200 meters. Female's size is larger than the male as the marking is less red.
曙鳳蝶不僅是台灣特有種，因為數量稀少，也被列為保育類蝶種，七到九月可以在海拔1,200公尺以上的高山見到它們。這張是雌蝶的展翅版，雌蝶比雄蝶略大些，但是紋路較不紅。

The butterflies have been few and far between at home. There seemed to be a good number of them in West Virginia but not much diversity of species. The Swallowtails were the most abundant and quite showy on the purple flowers of the thistle.

This is one of endemic and endangered species butterfly to Taiwan. It only can be met during July to September in the mountain above 1,200 meters. As the open wings markings is similar to water lemon, we give it a nick name of "water lemon butterfly".
曙鳳蝶不僅是台灣特有種，因為數量稀少，也被列為保育類蝶種，七到九月可以在海拔1,200公尺以上的高山見到它們。這張是雄蝶的展翅版，因為下翅的紋路類似西瓜，有時會膩稱他們為「西瓜鳳蝶」。
