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.
