WOW! I CANNOT BELIEVE I GOT PHOTOS OF THIS! I brought in 3 Swallowtail cats planning to put them back outside once they form their chrysalids. I just happened to be taking photos of this one when - - - - - he started shedding his skin and formed his chrysalis right before my eyes! It happened so fast. Many of the shots were out of focus because he was moving so much. Here are a few of the better ones. I think I may keep them inside over the winter so I can watch the butterflies emerge this spring. Maybe I can catch that with the camera too!

tcs - I'd love to get some of your seeds if you have enough to trade or for the cost of the postage.

Welcome Arkies! My garden isn't anything spectacular - I just started making an effort to provide both nector and host plants. The hummers and butterflies seem to like them and we see more each year. Anyone is welcome to visit when you're in the area.
