I noticed a couple of small Cabbage White butterflies in my patio garden the other day. This motivated me to start planning my butterfly activities for the year.
It is still too early for Monarchs. They need reliably warm weather, and live milkweed on which to feed, neither of which I can provide in April. So instead, I ordered a few Painted Lady larvae, which arrived April 18. The come in a one cup size container with special food to nourish them until they pupate. http://dan-matyola.squarespace.com/danmatyolas-pesos/2022/4/22/painted-ladies K-5 IIS, smc DA 35 mm MACRO F 2.8 Limited.
