I had a tiger swallowtail at my butterfly bush today. I had a close up and saw that a portion of the (tail) was missing. Does that cause a problem for the butterfly? Rachel from PA

Butterflies often have a little bite taken out of their wings. If it is small, it doesn't seem to hinder their flight ability.
