Yep gang ...they're back! And yes, Becky it means Spring here in Texas when BSTs return as well, (to me anyway). One of my BSTs eclosed yesterday, and I have been babyin this Parsley patch all winter. It's paid off bigtime now. I still have 4 Parsley plants in pots that made it all winter too. The big row I have now is only a few plants that got some organic feeding and tending/covering/&sunshine all winter. :-). The parsley seems to like fish in thier diet. Then about a month ago I applied some Rabbit Farm food around the beds, and it's a virtual forest of herbage ready for ovipositing.

Sweet how my first fly through sighting aligned with one of my BSTs eclosing!! Maybe they will hook up, LOL!
