The photo is a picture of a Canadian Tiger Swallowtail nectaring on some purple flowers. The Canadian Tiger Swallowtail (Papilio canadensis) is a medium to large butterfly with distinctive yellow and black coloring that may be seen in the Adirondack Mountains in upstate New York in late spring and early summer. It is a member of the family Papilionidae (Swallowtails), named for the tail-like projections on their hind wings, resembling the tails of swallows.

Another shot of the yellow and black morphs of the tiger swallowtail butterfly feed on the small purple blossoms of adjacent blazing star (Liatris spicata) plants. They’re just in slightly different positions now.

The #TigerSwallowtails have arrived! They are dramatic #butterflies, brightly colored, with a swooping flight pattern. With my head down, pulling weeds, I often momentarily mistake their passing shadows for birds, they’re that large.
