After visiting the calendar gardens the other day I stopped at a nature area, and was lucky to find this beauty along the path. I had the sigma 17-70mm lens on the camera, and leaned in close for some shots.
The (eastern) black swallowtail (Papilio polyxenes), are also called the American swallowtail or parsnip swallowtail.
Thanks for the views, and comments, have a nice day.

Never argue with an idiot. They'll drag you down to their level, then beat you with experience.
Another one fit for a butterfly book. Wonderful colours/markings and excellent clarity Sandi.

My thanks to all who leave comments for my work and to those of you who like one enough to make it a favourite. To touch just one person that way makes each image worthwhile. . . . . . . . . .. . . . "The question is not what you look at, but what you see" ~ Marcel Proust
He's a beauty and he's intact. Most of the ones I've seen around here were tattered. Good to catch this beauty as it won't be long before they're gone.
