 +===== Eastern Tiger Swallowtail =====
 +
 +The Eastern Tiger Swallowtail has been the official butterfly of Delaware since 1999. Males are yellow with black lines, while females have blue under their wings. They look like bird droppings as little caterpillars, which helps them hide from predators. As they expand in size, they become green and have snake-like eyespots.[([[https://butterflywebsite.com/articles/tiger-swallowtails.cfm|butterflywebsite]])]
