Nice picture.
Fantastic shot! We have black swallowtails here but they never seem to stay still long enough for me to get a decent shot.
I agree, Black Swallowtail and beautiful shot.
Thank you! I wasnt exactly sure wich one it was.
The uninterrupted row of orange spots on the hind wing suggests Black Swallowtail.Beautiful image, though.
I think this is a black swallow tail.
