Had a Pipevine ovipositing in my yard yesterday. I assume she is from one  
of the caterpillars I received from Hank Golet a few weeks ago. Her 
preference  was the very small ( 4"-5") shoots growing around the base of the main 
vine  which is 12'-15' high with plenty of new growth. There are multiple 
eggs on each  plant I inspected.
Not sure why she chose the small shoots which will not support even one  
caterpillar so there will have to be some human help to ensure success.
