First Eastern Black Swallowtail of the season. Eastern Black Swallowtails are all females. They sport an alternate coloration from the yellow & black Eastern Tiger Swallowtails.
This black coloration is not considered ideal for mating chances, but it does help these ladies live longer & avoid predators.
