My entry for watercolorists AquaChallenge fav.me/db5sq2k

This year the lilacs behind my house bloomed like crazy, and attracted butterflies I've never seen before. Clockwise from upper left: Common Buckeye, Two-Tailed Swallowtail, Red Admirals, Painted Lady, and the Variegated Fritillary. I think the Painted Lady is my favorite, though the Two-Tailed Swallowtail (which happens to be the state butterfly of Arizona) is a close second.
