Debnes, I did indeed notice a bit of parsley planted among the plants where I found the chrysalis. I forgot I planted it. I think your glad cage is a super idea. Thanks for that info.

There are so many great pics that I can't comment on all of them. Melanie, Elphaba, Linda, Kelli, and Mola, thanks so much for these greats. And Melanie, I loved your link on Spicebush vs. Palamede cats.

I ended up bringing the lone Black ST inside. It will freeze tonight, and I felt so sorry for the little thing. I stuck the wrought iron stake, chrysalis, all, in one of my butterfly cages zipped open just a hair. The top of the stake is propped against the wall in a very precarious position. I'm going to buy a gladware container, like Debnes has, and try to hang my little friend in there.
