Thanks Sheila! Having lots of butterfly plants outside Mom's office window is helping her to see them and get used to identifying them.

Since I no longer fear having a gall bladder attack in the middle of the woods, I went hiking today! I have never seen so many Zebra STs flying around. I only found five eggs and a baby cat, but there should be some serious egg laying going on soon. I saw one male trying to "persuade" a lady butterfly, but she wasn't having it. I thought the guy flew away to soon - but if a guy isn't willing to make the effort, he's not worth it!

I also spotted several Spicebush ST and about five Palamedes (one of which almost flew into my face) but I couldn't get any pictures of them. They just don't like to settle down.
