I GUESS OREGON DOES HAVE A STATE BUTTERFLY (AND SOME OTHER CRAZY STATE SYMBOLS I DISCOVERED HERE: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Oregon_state_symbols )
LIKE OUR STATE BEVERAGE IS MILK - HAHA. REALLY SHOULD BE BEER, WE HAVE SO MANY BREWERIES.

OUR BUTTERFLY IS THE OREGON SWALLOWTAIL (Papilio oregonius). IT ACTUALLY WAS THE FIRST BUTTERFLY TO END UP ON A STAMP.

YES YOU HAVE ALL THE CRITTERS AND NAMES !

WHAT LOVELY PATTERNS ON ITS BACK AND A BEAUTIFUL BLUISH SHEEN.

THATS WHAT I ACTUALLY SEE ! SIGHT SO SCREWED UP THE IRRIDESCENT GETS PAST THE FOG !

I love the beautiful irridescent blue and that lovely lacy edge to the wings. A treat to be able to see and watch them, let alone capturing them like this Pam
