Here's a few more from today.
The Long-Tailed Skippers were out again. This one is kind of blurry because he was pretty far away. These guys jump around a lot! Hence, the name skipper!
I found a Monarch (and his frass) on my Giant Milkweed. The one Monarch I had out front that made its chrysalis turned brown, a sign of OE infection, I think. Upon closer inspection, the ants were already in it so I broke off the leaf and threw it in the yard. I have two other cats on the same plant and I don't want them infected.
Here's the Queen laying an egg, although I have yet to find any Queen cats. And upon seeing this photo on my computer, I noticed you can see a Monarch cat on the extreme right side of the photo! I didn't even notice when I was taking the shot!
Here's a couple more of the Queen just hanging out.
And the Monarch dropped by for a second.
