Pearl Crescents, all different, there were a lot of them on this day, and a lot of Palamedes Swallowtails, but I could not convince any of the swallowtails to land on a wildflower, mostly on the ground, but got one on a thistle. The one on the thistle is missing a big chunk of wing, but was flying just fine, in my opinion.
