Determination pays off! I found nine Red Admiral cats in my neighbor's pellitory this afternoon!!! I think it helped to know what they looked like and there's a good picture in the Bug Files of the tents they make. It looks a little different on pellitory, but it helped. Luckily, these guys were black, not green like the ones at the museum, because it made them easier to find. And like I always say, once you find the first one it makes it so much easier to find more. Now that I know, I'm dangerous! Tomorrow at the museum I'm going to see if I can find any!!
