Swallowtail

I could include this photo in my flowers-past-their-prime series. This butterfly didn't seem to mind the wilting blooms.

@casablanca I have some images of the underside of his wings. I'll need to look those up to get the proper species. I found that there are two species of swallowtails that look the same from above, but have different markings from below.

@tdaug80 Oooh how interesting! I shall look forward to those then
