This zebra swallowtail butterfly is drinking nectar from a plumeless thistle flower in an abandoned agricultural field at Banshee Reeks Nature Preserve in Leesburg, VA. Butterflies are important pollinators to the environment as they can carry pollen over great distances to aid in the growth of new plants. Credit: Elizabeth A. Sellers
