I think the Giant Swallowtail might be my favorite too! Beautiful pictures Snuzer and Sheila.

Kim, that's a really nice shot of the sulfer. I find them really hard to capture. I'm impressed.

Meredith, I'm not going to pretend to know anything about raising cats. My only experience was that I brought one in the air conditioned house and left the rest outside. The one in the house hardly ate at all and was tiny until I put him outside. Then he doubled in size over night. I'm sure he must have eaten through the night, but it seemed to me that they ate most vigorously during the heat of the day. I think temperature must have something to do with it.

Blue-eyes, amazing Gulf Frit pic. I'm amazed that your photo is so colorful even in the sun. My sun shots are usually washed out.

Like you, one of my vines was really out of control even though it was covered with cats. My pipevine was all over my orchid tree. I very carefully tried to move the cats to other parts of the vine. I cut out sections with eggs and moved them. Then I saw this guy. I decided I'd better leave him where he is.
