Pawpaws attract certain BF, I guess you could call them the Fruit Eaters. So far I've noted the Red Spotted Purple, Red Admiral, Viceroy, Question Mark, and Comma.



I too have seen all those with the exception of Viceroy on my fruit tray (flat hanging bird feeder) which recently has included:

Banana
Paw Paw
Tomato
Apple
Peach

I also have had Monarchs on it.

My biggest continuing attractant for Monarchs is Tithonia and Tropical Milkweed.

I have seen no swallotails of any type for over a week.
