Until I read Larry and Donnas’ emails I did not even realize NatureNS had a Facebook page. And the pics of the Tiger Swallowtails are indeed impressive. There are lots of viewers and ways to get slides onto other formats for posterity but none so fun as the old carousel and sheet on the wall.

The scenery was already breath-taking along the river Cascapedia, and then we encountered a marvelous, 'never-never land', magical mass of swirling Tiger Swallowtails.  They were mud-daubing by the dozens, and we stopped the car to enjoy the phenomenon among the Canada Anemones and sea of Ostrich ferns.  (I love that countryside.)   That was many years ago now, but I still think of it.  I have slides of this event, taken back when slides were "the thing".  Remember slides? and carousel projectors?

The first one had about 50 butterflies in it and the second about half that many. I stopped and watched the first after I distrubed them. They were at a muddy sight which is typical of this species. They all flew around for awhile but then slowly settled down at the on the mud again and congregated very close to each other.
