I noticed today that my one large Bluet plant in my backyard was covered in butterflies. About a dozen of a Sulphur species, one that is lemon yellow not orange, no brown or black on the inside and no spots on the outside that were visible without going out there to them. And Reakirts Blues. Not much else for nectar so this one very large plant was seeing a lot of action.
Twice this week we put the game camera on our fox den. Frankie Fox has 5 babies. They seem more like kittens than puppies and oh so cute. Am hoping for more videos tonight to see how they are doing. I posted me holding a baby armadillo on Facebook earlier this week also. With all the tragedy down here I sure am glad to have baby animals to focus on.
Kathy, That is great about your butterflies and Bluet. I wish our Bluets were covered. Here we have maybe one of the best years for bluet in our field and still hard to find insects on them 🙁 Very cute to hear about Frankie Fox. Maybe you will get some good shots. Yes, the tragedy just breaks the heart.
Wow! You surely did see lots of butterflies. Good to see them. Thanks.
It sure was great to see them. Horace’s Duskywings were the most abundant.
