eastern swallow tigertail

Papilio P. glaucus

Description:

faded yellow, black wing tips and wing accents. maybe 4-5 in wing span.

Habitat:

these bad bois can be found almost anywhere i assume, i found this buddy in the woods hiking somewhere along the c&o canal

Notes:

super friendly, super gentile. this bad boi was just chillin' like a villain so i scooped him up to get a closer look, turns out he was super cool and even hung out on my hand a bit and posed for some pics. super solid bud 13/10
