Eastern Black Swallowtail - a photo on Flickriver

            Female Eastern Black Swallowtail (Papilia polyxenes). Photographed at the Butterfly House in the Nature Center, Huntsville Botanical Gardens, Huntsville, AL on 10/14/2006.
Gardens with carrot plants, parsley, phlox and milkweed may attract this beautiful butterfly. Overwinters as Chrysalis. Although this butterfly was photographed in a Butterfly House, it is native to Alabama and most of the United States east of the Rockies. It also can be found in southern Canada, Central and South America.
