Way way more interesting than a 'swampie'. This is a Mountain Tigertail. I've never seen one. Very similar to Southern Tigertail, but you were very lucky to get the perfect side-on angle to pick up the distinctive curl to the anterior tip of the lower thoracic yellow stripe/patch.

Thank you Harvey - I have to admit, the whole thing was definitely simply luck. I'm glad you're around to educate us all!
