Here's a good site for tiger swallowtails in Washington:

I'm wondering where we can collect local catterpillars or eggs in the 

spring.  When I was a kid growing up in California, we raised our own 

monarchs, painted ladies, anise swallowtails, gulf frittilaries, etc. 

The frogs were such a hit with the kids, I want them to see bug 

metamorphasis this year.  I know there are tiger swallowtails here, so 

they must be living off SOMETHING...  If there were a good book on native 

northwest insects.  I suppose there's no fancy entomology club equivalent 

to GSAS or the herp society.
