Tiger swallowtails are my favorites. We have huge lantana bushes in our yard which attract these lovely butterflies. Lantana is not supposed to get the size of ours, but it does get large and comes back every spring.

I took a trip down to Mexico in early February to visit Cerro Pelon and El Rosario butterfly sanctuaries. Didn't want to take a DSLR with me, so took my Lumix point and shoot, and a Canon PowerShot G3 X which I rented. Here are a couple of shots with the G3.
