Papilio glaucus
About 4 inches across wings. Hard to catch in a photo moving around so much!
I agree with Keith, this is a dark form Tiger Swallowtail. Check out the link he provided! Nice find!
This is a dark form female Tiger Swallowtail - Papilio glaucus. You can see the tiger stripes on the underside.http://bugguide.net/node/view/491
