--001a11c370a236fe8104e05c3824 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1 Hi Angus Your comment about the massing Tiger Swallowtails on the ground below one of your nice photos reminded me of something from my Entomology course at Dal long ago (taught by Edith Angelopoulos- she did some insect segments on CBC as well). Tiger Swallowtails are believed to mass or puddle on the ground to take in minerals etc from the soil. They will do the same on dung or carrion too. According to Wikipedia males do this more often than females.
