Yeah!!! I hadn't seen a Red Admiral in months but last week a couple showed up on my brew on one of the windiest days we've had. Go figure!!!

Don't ya just love stepping outside at night to take a peek at your bait log!!! There's always a bunch of moths on mine too. Usually a black witch or two but mainly lots of medium sized buggers.

One time I just shined the flashlight from the back door and got the fuzzies scared out of me! There were these two beady eyes looking up at me from the bait brew bowl - an oppossum!!!

The dogs are usually pretty good at keeping them out of the back yard but they still manage to sneak over the fence and raid the tangerine tree or hit up the bait brew bowl!
