The brightest things in our swamps here are often the cardinal flowers. They grow on tiny outposts of soil in the wetlands, often merely accumulated detritus and silt captured by a cypress knee or mud-mired log. The Palamedes or laurel swallowtail seen here working the cardinal flower is another maven of the swamps of North Carolina. They seldom occur inland.
