They always come back to the rue...which is a good thing as it is always sold down here at the local flea markets. This female emerged yesterday while I was at work - by the time I got home it was dark and there was a cool nip in the air. I brought her inside and released her this morning. She's a lovely lady! I like it when they turn out to be females - hopefully she'll stick around the yard and if she does fly off to find a mate she'll also find her way back here to lay eggs. Don't know why I want more eggs...there are gobs of little cats of all stages on the rue plants already!!! ~ Cat |
