Suddenly four caterpillars appeared on the milkweed. Two great egrets had a territorial dispute which the camera missed. A belated money plant kept opening small flowers. I made my daily check of the chrysalis and located the four black swallowtail caterpillars. The rue did not look healthy so my fingers are crossed that it lasts long enough for them to pupate.
A tiger swallowtail swooped past the yard. A greenhouse millipede pretended to be a branch stub on a floating twig. I rescued it without dislodging it and got some photos. Spittlebugs infested the rosemary. Again a long-legged fly wandered around the morning glory leaves. I could only find two of the three
Argiopes. A
drain fly shared the shower and, no, I did not have a camera with me.
