I have been quite remiss in posting! 


Today on the buddleia: 
3 Tiger Swallowtails 
numerous skippers--definitely tawny-edged, possibly some witches, but they weren't really lingering 


More skippers on the mint--yesterday, Peck's, today mostly tawny-edged 


Saw a dark swallowtail flying over the house--hoping for pipevine, but too far to tell. 


I released two Monarchs over the weekend, from eggs I found in Westport. Besides them, I have only seen one Monarch in my yard. Today I did find one 3rd instar caterpillar on swamp milkweed.
