Yep, painted lady for sure. The difference in the bodies are amazing. I was hoping to get a pic of a black swallowtail, and there was at least one there, but I was trying frame a pic and I'm afraid I scared off most of the butterflies. I think there is another black butterfly type around too.
According to that page the swallowtails are Canadian? I did not know that. Their swallowtails were not defined strongly and I didn't see any blue on the ones that stuck around. I thought they looked kind of lemony pale, moreso than some.
