In 1979 the legislature designated the Oregon Swallowtail (Papilio oregonius) as Oregon’s official insect. I thought this was one, but after examining several other photos, I believe it is a Western Tiger Swallowtail. Still pretty cool.

Beautiful shot. Love how it stands out against the vivid pink flowers.
Well captured Jill and I love the pink flowers they are pretty and so colourful.
Great photography Jill, its hard to capture butterflies just at the right moment but you did.
Hi Jill, I just found your site...your pictures are beautiful and I really enjoyed them. I would like to be added to your email list.
