wow! those pictures are excellent, crystal clear and good close ups. i used to do nature photography and shots like yours won awards for me. are using a slr camera with a macro lens or were these pictures taken with a digital? i still use my 1980 minolta srt 201 but not very often anymore.
this cat is an anise swallowtail according to the audubon field guide to north american butterflies. i find these on parsley and carrots. they can munch all they want, never had too many that'd cause problems.
