    Please note I rotated the first photo to fit better on a home PC screen. In the meantime I really don't know much about this butterfly collection. I like the frame on this one as it looks a bit older. Most butterfly collections come from Southeast Asia or South America. There are also homemade collections which are usually North American. This one I am not sure about. Despite all my butterfly collections I am not an expert on butterflies. I just think they look neat. But I do know enough to know the middle butterfly is a Swallowtail. Using google I see it a Tiger Swallowtail which is from the Eastern US so my guess that it is North American is correct.
    That plus the Asian and South American Butterflies are more colorful. South American collections will always have a Blue Morpho so that gives that one away.
    Also note these butterflies are mounted in such a way that can be placed vertically or horizontally. I went vertical with it.
    Tomorrow night, a mini-plane!
