Have camera...will travel!!! Will look for those giant hooded pitcher plants.

Am going to take my backpack to put my camera and equipment in as well as some snacks and bottled water. I'm not sure if the tour offers food and refreshments...but I'm not taking any chances with the heat and humidity out here.

By the way, the grass area near my dorm that has a variety of butterflies flitting in it has some purple flowers at the top of a stalk. It grows in the ditches where there is water. I don't know what it is but the Black Swallowtails like it. It's the one that duskywing is nectaring from above.

Oh, and there is lots and lots of passion flower vines growing wild out here. Wish I could box a bunch up and ship home but it's against policy to dig up plants etc.

ps...There's a BST in this photo of the plants
