Is that Black ST cat on Queen Anne's lace? Just curious since most of us plant parsley and fennel and such. I need to find me some wild Queen Anne's Lace - I know there's a patch of it out there waiting for me somewhere.

Even a bad picture of a Red-Spotted Purple is better than no picture at all (sniff, sniff).

And maybe a blurry picture of a Giant ST is better than none? I went in to get my camera because the Zebra Longwing was flying around and when I came back out this Giant ST stopped by. One good thing about Florida - we have plenty of citrus plants to host these guys. One of the volunteers at MOSI was talking to me about Giant STs and said his Dad owned an orange grove and that they didn't spray their but their neighbor did. I thanked him for not killing off all the beneficial insects. It seems like the Giant STs get the most "oohs" and "ahhs" from our visitors.
