Illustrating the difficulty sometimes encounterred in identifying butterflies, especially on the wing, is this Spicebush Swallowtail. Easy to confuse with dark form female ETS when flitting about, here you see the diffuse area of blue (rather a lighter shade than usually seen on ETS females) on the top of the wings and the double arc of orange spots on the underside.
