mmmm.... yummy

I'm guessing its some kind of swallow tail butterfly..

 

I was at the zoo in Ashboro, North Carolina near the Puffin exhibit. I could not find any Puffins, but then spotted this beauty flying around the flowers in the neighborhood.. followed it around for a minute or so until it settled down on this flower to enjoy its juices... which gave me enough time to capture it on my sensor.

 

I admit the corner of the left wing is a bit blurred, but like the overall sharpness, hence thought of sharing it..
