Female Swallowtail

Went out to take a photo of the cows, so had my 80-200 lens fitted to the camera. As I crossed the garden this swallowtail flew onto the bouganvillea. Quickly put the auto setting onto sports/fast mode and just snapped away.
Looks like she was heading straight for me. I cropped the pics before posting.

The following two pics demonstrate why they are called swallowtails.
