How did I miss this??? I mistakenly posted this as a "new" thread instead of here where it belongs. I was hoping to see more butterfly photos and here they are!!! Wonderful, and I've put it on my watch list.
Though I have to confess that I find myself spending way too much time on this site. So much to see, so much to learn, so much fun!
Before the flowers started blooming this spring, several butterflies (especially Red Admirals) were moving through the area. Knowing they have a fondness for rotting fruit, I made a 'mash' of black bananas, brown sugar, and dark beer. I let it ferment overnight (uncovered so it doesn't explode). It turned into the local pub! In fact, that one in the back looks like it might be staggering off to an AA meeting...
Now the spring blooms are coming on, and I'd love to see what butterflies are visiting your gardens. Post some photos! Please!
