August 27: Swallowtail Caterpillar

There are a lot of Swallowtail caterpillars on my parsley plants. I do not mind though, as I love Swallowtail butterflies.

Generally parsley is easy to grow! I wonder if this caterpillar tastes like parsley! Or maybe gets the green in its wings from it!

Beautiful capture. Thank you for the name of this caterpillar. I captured one some months ago and didn't bother to find out its name.
