Beautiful tiger, tarev! It seems to have missing tails, but butterflies can manage without them.
Okay, here's a Black Swallowtail I raised, now on a tree outside, waiting until it is ready to try flying. And a close-up of the Queen caterpillar, who will get plenty of fresh milkweed, since no other caterpillars have needed any this year (and I have lots of it):
