Appreciating the Heliotrope

I love the purple blooms and subtle vanilla-like scent of Heliotropium arborescens. This swallowtail seems to like it, too.

Snaggy Saturdays

Intentional snag at Portage Creek Wildlife Reserve in Arlington, WA. I love that they left so many perches, and hey, it's also a great post for a sign. Observed on April 28, 2019.
