Great pic of the owl-eyed butterfly Cat.. Amazing that all those guys are able to remain on the boat!! Love the Hairstreak!! I have been seeing the Gray ones.. They look like flying dimes.

Nice ZLW pic GP!

Welcome aboard Elphaba!! What nice pics of the PVST. Becky's right they should be in the BFiles. Nice one of the PolyD ST too! Looks like your Pipevine will be very busy doing it's job!!

I have several species of Pipevine and usually get a good population of the cats and release a fair share of the PVST butterflies. Such cool cats they are!! I love how they lumber along on the vines.

Here is a pic of the Aristolochia macrophylla.. Turns out it is as Jim Rogers said, an early bloomer. The pipe blooms are only about 3 inches long.
