When I left to go to the store, this guy was hanging out and he was still there when I returned. My caterpillar is going to look just like this! That's glandularia tampensis (Tampa Mock Vervain) by the way; it just started blooming again. As I drove in one of those white butterflies actually landed on my blanket flower and sat still for a moment, but of course I was in the car with a bunch of cold groceries...

FYI, where I sit at my computer I can see out the sliding glass doors into my side/back yard. I just saw a zebra longwing go up over the roof and there's the usual swallowtail flying around my neighbor's yard (what does he have that I don't, LOL).
