This future Eastern Black Swallowtail ate the entire pot of parsley and I’m not mad.

Eastern Tiger Swallowtail Butterflies
"Swallowtail" - the caudal projections on the hind wings. "Tiger" - the four black stripes on the front wings.
Females come in both yellow and black morphs. The latter mimic toxic Pipevine Swallowtails.

More Eastern Tiger Swallowtails have visited our garden this summer than any other butterflies. Central Pennsylvania. #butterfly #butterflies #easterntigerswallowtail #easterntigerswallowtails #easternswallowtail #easternswallowtails #swallowtail #swallowtails #flutterby #fluttterbys #nature

#brooklyn Be on the lookout! Eastern Swallowtail caterpillars are eating ALL the parsley and want a study stick to make chrysalises! Found nine of these this morning on my denuded parsley plant. #butterfly #easternswallowtail

This Eastern Swallowtail butterfly is an early bloomer, braving the many weeks of rain to live its short, 3-week life. #swallowtail #butterfly #easternswallowtail #newyork
