I was out tromping around in our wildflower meadows this morning & look what I spied!

Eastern Black Swallowtail cats!! Hurray! Hurray! Hurray! Hurray!
There were several of them of this size that I saw. Here's a photo of another one:
I had to shade it with my hat in order to get the photo. Hilarious!

I have wondered for a long time what this plant was & tried researching before but it was darn hard to figure it out. With the new information of knowing it's the host for BST's I was able to nail it down and have now added photos and data details (as much as I could find) to our db. Hurray!
I am a strong believer in the simple fact is that what matters in this life is how we treat others. I think that's what living is all about. Not what I've done in my life but how I've treated others. ~~ Sharon Brown
