Sorry I've been MIA for a bit. Work is a little crazy and then I just started feeling really tired. I thought I might be low on the B12 again but I had my blood tested and it was off the charts. Unfortunately, so was my white cell count. But after a round of Cipro I'm feeling much better. And that means I have lots of pictures to share.

Honestly, a couple of weeks ago I was ready to state that butterfly season was winding down. I hadn't seen a Swallowtail in a while, but it must have been due to the weather. We had the remnants of Ida and then a front came through so it was windy and rainy for a while.

But then it got warm and sunny again and all the butterflies came out to play. Like this Cloudless Sulphur who was laying eggs on my Senna ligustrina (Privet Cassia).
