The beginning and the end of the work week brought two new visitors
to the collection of vegetation I call my butterfly garden.
On Monday (8/22), there was a very worn Spicebush Swallowtail. Today
(8/26) the buddleia attracted the day-flying Corn Earworm moth
(Helicoverpa zea) which probably matured in a neighbor's tomato plant.
The regulars continue: Eastern Tiger Swallowtail, Great Spangled
Frit., Monarchs (who have discovered my milkweed), Painted Ladies,
and Silver spotted and Peck's Skippers.
