This Eastern Tiger Swallowtail butterfly was on the road at Rondeau Provincial Park, Ontario, Canada.

Papilio glaucus
This unique species of swallowtail is a quick and strong flier, gliding when able. The males are a bright yellow, while the females can exhibit two different color forms; yellow and black and black and blue. The darker form is more common in the southern states.
