A Black Swallowtail butterfly with wings open on an orange flower. The wings are mostly black with blue tails and an orange dot on the inside edge of each wing tail. Pale yellow dots line the edges of the wings.

The same Black Swallowtail butterfly from the other picture but with wings halfway closed.

This gorgeous #BlackSwallowtail butterfly visited my garden today! I usually don't see them in my gardens, so I was very excited for this visitor! And he/she let me take pictures!
