Swarming around a pile of horse dung. Images are blurry bc they were beating their wings rapidly.
Great Smoky Mountains National Park, in TN near Pigeon Forge
Location is approximate. Spotted in Great Smoky Mountains National Park, in TN. Location suggests P. appalachiensis (Appalachian Tiger Swallowtail, recently recognized as a distinct species), but they don't appear different from P. glaucus (Eastern Tiger Swallowtail).
