Philadelphus


Day 269: The Philadelphus -a very fragrant flower I normally associate with June weddings- has just opened in the last few days. Summer was slow in arriving, and the Swallowtail butterflies have been searching in vain for the tree's blossoms for the last two weeks. Today, they were hovering on the highest, sunniest ones where warm nectar was the most plentiful. Soon they'll be down in camera range!
