This is a first for me. I have only seen a Pipevine Swallowtail once at the old place. I had my first one here at the new place today. She was all over the Aristolochia gigantea Susie gave me. I couldn't find any eggs though. I looked at the A. trilobata, also from Susie and found blooms but no eggs ;-( then looked at my A. elegans/littloris and wha la I found 23 eggs on one stem and 14 on another. Sure hope the wasp and spiders don't get them. My BST have been laying eggs everyday and I'm not seeing any cats. I am seeing the wasp all over my dill everyday so I think that is what's getting the eggs. Sorry for the bad pic. She was going from leaf to leaf non stop
