Over the years I have written numerous articles about and taken several videos of butterflies in flight. I am always amazed as I witness these beautiful creatures. This week I noticed one lone butterfly lingering throughout the day. At times I thought I was seeing double but I was not. The single Tiger Swallowtail was now being joined by three others hovering over a patch of delphinium. What a delight! I have never seen this many all at once during any season. I discovered they are known as Sulphers and are common along roadsides, in fields and in gardens. They are especially attracted to alfalfa, clovers and other legumes. Please enjoy the video below, I call it “ Butterfly Madness”. Cheers!
