Not a Swallowtail

Suzanne and I squeezed in an outing this morning before we both start hitting the roads, making up for so many months at home.  We initially thought we had spotted a swallowtail without its tail,  but I believe this is a Red-spotted Purple.  I noticed these for the first time last summer.  A kind birdwatcher gave us a heads up about a few Yellow-breasted Chat in the vicinity, and although I got multiple shots of one in a treetop, it was pretty far away.
