And I thought you'd like to see one of my TST babies. I have been worried because they hardly eat and they haven't been growing much...worry, worry, etc. Good thing I've raised those two-tailed tigers before...but these seem to make even slower progress. Well, last few days they haven't been eating at all because they have been doing an instar. And voila, no more bird droppings now!
Earlier today, I thought I saw a TST butterfly fluttering around the Texas Ash (my DH spotted it first through a window) and I ran outside. The butterfly was flying off at that time, so I looked around for eggs. I found instead a cat (still kind of bird-droppingish). I must have overlooked it before. Surprise! Will check the tree more later when the thunder and rain subside.
