My RSP eggs started hatching today! Oh, and I forgot to mention that I had an egg on the rue the other day. I remembered to go back and check it yesterday and found two Giant ST cats and a whole bunch of eggs which I believe to be Black ST eggs (from the color and quantity left). Giant STs are actually pretty good about not overburdening a plant. It's like they know the egg to plant ratio so there's enough food for everyone.

Speaking of eggs, I keep forgetting to tell you guys that those weird metallic eggs on my beans turned out to be spiders. I've seen some more since and left them alone. I like spiders in the vegetable garden; my bean and tomato trellises encourage them to build webs, which I like. Better than spraying poisons on my plants, I figure.

Here's my first RSP baby.
