Eastern Tiger Swallowtail

Papilio glaucus

Description:

Mostly yellow wings with black stripes and a black outline.

Habitat:

When I first saw him he was sitting on the ground. Sat there for a few minutes while I watched him. When I went to get my camera, I got close to make sure he wasn't dead, and he flew over to these bushes at the creek and let me photograph him there.
