Linda,

Do ya'll get lots of Texas Powdered Skippers there? I see maybe only a handful a year out here. Hope you raise that catepillar :o)


Mellie...you're stealing my thunder :o) Lucky you for photographing those ZSTs mating. They have such awesome markings...gotta love that red, black and white!!! You need to track down the mating butterfly post and add your photos there too.

I also saw several Sickle Winged Skipper caterpillars on the native colima (prickly lime ash) trees. Here's one of the bigger caterpillars.
