hey, Coleup, so glad to see you've put up another pollinator thread! I've been loving the bees, skippers and other butterflies, and other beneficial insects in my yard this year-- so far, they especially love the new mountain mints I got last year!

Only two cats (BST) so far this season--they emerged and flew away a week or two ago. Hoping to see some more Monarch cats this year, but nothing so far.

Had one exciting visitor recently--a hummingbird clearwing sphynx moth!! So beautiful! (Flapdoodle and Greenthumb have been helping me with some insect IDs on the Insect & Spider ID forum.) Held me captive in the yard for the longest time, admiring. Hope to see more of them!
