I wanted to get a pic of the butterfly, but only saw one laying eggs once and it was really moving fast, so couldn't get my camera in time. However, I found wings from a dead butterfly right by the crotons. Kind of strange to do that, but I put the wings together on a papertowel to see what it might look like. Maybe someone will tell me if it's a Goatweed Leafwing.

I would feel more optimistic about a bright future for man if he spent less time proving that he can outwit Nature and more time tasting her sweetness and respecting her seniority. E. B.White
