They look somewhat camouflaged with their surroundings. Nice image.

This is a very striking image. Could you please share some details, camera, lens, exposure? Thanks.

A beautifully crafted image to have the background colour and tones match into those of the butterflies.

That's very nice Jim and beautifully captured. I can't answer your question unless the one in the middle is a female. Geoff might know.

Many butterflies, including Swallowtails, will feed on moisture on the surfce of mud or damp soil, or on manure. I suspect this last would be more nutritious. Your butterflies look as if they are drinking off damp soil.

Exactly my thoughts, John.

Beautiful image; i think they are mud puddling, deriving nutrients directly from soil.....

[Ziggy]

Thanks all for the comment and information. They where at the site of an old campfire.
