What a beautiful day at the museum! Pictured on the left is the stunning Spicebush Swallowtail engrained in a rich black color filled with yellow spots, followed by the Eastern Tiger Swallowtail painted in its fierce orange and black. Finally, the emperor: the monarch, spreading its wings in the sunshine. Come visit the Thomas Edison Center here at Menlo Park, we are not just history!🦋
