I released two female Monarchs today. Here's one of them on my Black and Blue salvia. The milkweed is planted right below so I figured it was a strategic location for her. I also saw a Gulf Frit, Checkered Whites, what I think was a Palamedes ST, and I caught a glimpse of the blue glitter which can only be a Pipevine ST!

No one has found my pipevine yet this year. I've been hiding it in the backyard. For some reason, the Polydamas don't seem to find my pipevine if I set it on our back patio area. If I set it in front of the house, they're all over it. I think maybe it has something to do with being in shade versus sun. When I saw the Pipevine ST I moved the pipevines over to that side in the house, but they're still in the shade. Here's hoping I can get some cats!
