04/22/25

 It's Earth Day officially but in my opinion Earth Day should be everyday.  I try to but and plant flowers that are native and that butterflies and bees will like.  You can do it for cheap with Zinnia seed.  They grow easily and butterflies love them!  I took this image of a male Tiger Swallowtail on an old established Lilac a little over a week ago.  It was perfect so must have been newly hatched.  My first butterfly capture for the year.

    1. Thanks Jim. Yes, unfortunately the Lilacs are almost done already. It's been really warm lately which shorten their lives, 80s or close to it.
