Spotted my first Gulf Fritillary today!!! It took off so no close ups. So they are returning later than normal due to our cold weather across the country has destroyed most of those that over-wintered in milder years. This is really the normal time of their returning is what I have been told. I guess we had been spoiled by their early emergence in the last few years.

I have a 'incense' in the front yard and it showed signs of cats having been there. So need to check daily, the wasp are bad about getting them.
