Marilyn - Congrats on the POTD and very nice image! I think, however, what you have there is a male Spicebush Swallowtail, which mimics the coloring of the Pipevine Swallowtail. The Pipevine won't have the large blue-green spots along the margin or the single orange eyespots when looking from above. We raise and release both species here in the summer months... two of my favorites. :)
