Papilio glaucus
Yellow wings with black stripes, a thin black border around the upper edge and a thick black border around the lower edge. Yellow & black body.
Feeding on the nectar of Joe Pye weed in the yard of my suburban home in an older neighborhood with mature trees.
One evening we discovered a dill plant in our yard covered with caterpillars. The next day they were gone. This weekend there were six brand new Yellow Tiger Swallowtail butterflies dancing about our yard.
