Sorry to hear that you had to squash the fly to save your hive, but I agree the pollinators are important. Hopefully the Red-bodied Swallowtail survives into adulthood. This was a great week in photographs! Makes me miss my garden and its bees & butterflies.
I write about nature, birdwatching, the outdoors, and conservation issues. I like to share pictures and sometimes my dogs show up. Twitter: @kimclawson2
