Gorgeous, James!! I'll trade my BST's for your TST's!!

I'm sorry about your Palamedes, Melanie. But, it's awfully cool that you have ZST's!! I think I've seen one this entire year, and I wish there was some way to attract them here, because there is a Pawpaw tree in my neighbor's back yard.

This guy defies all logic, Debnes. Maybe he partied too much Friday night, or maybe the fall butterflies simply eclose later in the day. In any event, he did not eclose until about 12:30 yesterday afternoon. We've got two more that look like they are going to eclose today -- more late bloomers, I guess. :)

Anyhoo, here's the "butterfly whisperer" with our guy from yesterday.... (picture one of three)
