Hi Ron
There are some technical problems here poor sharpness and some noises. I like the composition. But the most important thing here is the moment. Very interesting observation especially for entomologists.
Best wishes

I like butterfly photography a lot. Great capture of swallowtails in the wild. The only good closeups I get are at a butterfly pavillion. :) Well done!
hi Ron,
great capture and really interesting occurance.. who ever knew butterflies liked fish??
i have a hard time getting one butterfly in reasonable focus, let alone 3. nice work and thanks for sharing

Most interesting image Ron, I don't think I've ever seen swallowtails resting on a dead fish before..Would be great to know what they are actually attracted too.
Great image from scan,

Hello Ron
Great moment captured.
I like the way the swallowtails are clumped in the shot.
The focus and details are very good.
Excellent colours and markings are visible.
Even though they are grouped on a stinky dead fish,the shot is colourful,bright and interesting.The water has nice ripples with beautiful reflections,and it is easy to forget the dead fish completely.

Could it be salt from the fish body? Pretty butterflies....
Ron,
You got a beautiful shot of the butterflies here. I didn't notice the fish until I read your note. Hope it didn't smell too bad. wonderful colors and good detail and sharpness consider they were probably moving. Once again, Well done!

Hello Ron,
An interesting image, kind of a mixed message, beauty and death combined. I know that some butterflies feed on animal dung too, so they do like some things that are, shall we say, a bit less appealing ( at least to our human senses) than their typical flower nectar.
Thanks,
John
