My hunting for the butterfly Machaon - Papilio machaon

I really wanted to meet this butterfly, several times I saw her, but she flew very far from me and flew into the forest. And so, a few days ago, I went to the balcony. I live on the fifth floor. And I see that two Machaons are circling over the treetops. Sometimes they would sit on the top of a tree. I tried to take a few pictures. Because of the large distance, the photos turned out to be grainy, but, this is my trophy, which is. We can say that my first meeting with this beautiful butterfly took place.

This Machaon, apparently, already had time to taste a bird, the left wing is half bitten. But, the ability to fly this butterfly is not lost.

The distance to the facility was about 30 meters.
