More butterfly fun

Remember this butterfly from a post last week? I thought it was a Pipevine swallowtail. Actually I found a link on the Discover Life site mentioned in that post to another site Butterfliesandmoths.org. There I found a perfect duplicate of the butterfly in this photo and it was a Black Swallowtail (Papilio polyxenes). The Butterflies and Moths site is a good one; lots of photos. The photos are arranged by butterfly or moth family, so you kind of have to know what you're looking for or be willing to spend some time looking.

I'm still looking for an image to identify the butterfly in this photo.
