I just got back from volunteering; I mostly watered the plants but I did get to release six Great Southern Whites. I also netted two Barred Sulphurs, a Long-Tailed Skipper, and a Gulf Fritillary. So there is still some diversity around these parts. Found three Monarch caterpillars, too!

First picture is of the Great Southern White (which I've never seen in the wild; my boss trades her friends for them). They have turquoise antenna clubs which I find super cool. The second picture is a Julia cat getting ready to molt.
