Isabella Heliconian perched in backyard!!!

[Mike Quinn]

Carrie Cate found another Isabella Heliconian in our backyard this
afternoon. It's currently perched in a mesquite tree in the field behind
our house. It will probably stay for the night. Took some pictures.

Records for this species in our yard:

29 Nov. 1997
  8 Nov. 1998
23 Nov. 1998

BTW: The Uraniid Moth that Terry Fuller collected as a road kill in South
Texas back on Nov. 1, 1998 was the lead story of today's (Nov. 23) McAllen
