Thanks for the kind words about the article, Anne. Yes, Don, I was shaking
my head when I saw the photographs, all right. Of course, most Americans
conflate swallowtails with monarchs (if they have any image in mind at all)
-- so a fritillary is a LITTLE bit closer. Still, having got one picture
right...it does make one wonder just how they manage! ??
Reminds me of an Art Wolfe caption I once saw in an REI exhibit, for a
parnassian photo: "A moth of the high country." And many others, equally
wildly off. I am always bemused by the relative care that goes into text
vs. captions, when it is captions that most people read, if anything. And
the author seldom has a chance to see either the artwork or the captions.
Best regards,
Bob Pyle
