It's butterfly season!
I was out in the Cascade Mountain foothills for work this week and saw that butterfly season has started. This is a Western Tiger Swallowtail (Papilio rutulus); they have a wingspan of up to 4 inches. I saw dozens of these bright yellow butterflies throughout the day floating over wildflowers in full bloom. Just another great day as a biologist in the Pacific Northwest!
