Figure Bonnie's movements will waft a bunch more bugs up your way?
I'd expect that.
Incidentally, there was a painted bunting at my bird bath yesterday, who
chirped appreciatively (so I looked up. Wow!)
Winter already? Seems a bit early.
I figure buntings and warblers are honorary butterflies.
Milkweed is blooming, and I rescued a queen out of the radiator grille
of my friend's car (in perfect health, luckily) but I see no monarchs at
any stage of development.
Plenty of Battus polydamas, cloudless sulphur, zebra longwing (but few
gulf fritillaries this year). A strange, strange summer.
