Lots of action in the butterfly garden today! Mom saw a Queen on my new milkweed! I saw a couple of eggs so let's hope they're Queen and not Monarch eggs. I also saw a Zebra Longwing but couldn't get a picture.

As for those I did get pictures of, here's a monarch resting on my fluffy dill. I figure it must have made a soft resting place. I saw a Checkered White which is fairly uncommon in my garden. They hang out by the roadside where their host plant, pepper grass, grows. I also saw a tiny Barred Sulphur flying around.
