Found on Labrador pond NYS. These big, beautiful butterflies can be identified by their bold yellow-and-black stripes, hence their common name. The adults are on the wing in mid-summer, wheeling high among the branches of ash and cherry trees, where the big females lay their eggs. Papilio glaucus, the eastern tiger swallowtail, is a species of butterfly native to eastern North America.
