Sheila, A couple of weeks ago I captured a Giant Swallowtail just coming out of it's cocoon. I compared my picture to yours. Mine has the red marks, but I didn't see any blue in my picture.
I looked up your Thoas Swallowtail and they don't show them being in S. Florida.
Mine is definately a Giant Swallowtail.
They have been coming to the yard since last year when I planted a Wild Lime secifically to attract them.
Compare the two and see what you think.
In my picture I have zoomed it twice to show the red.
