Finally seeing Monarchs on (apparently) southern migration.
I managed a video.

This year has not been good compared to 2016 as far as my swallowtail factory.
TS 10 sent salt spray up into the yard and denuded portions of the garden, including the Anise plants and milkweed but not completely. This was a setback and caused another high cat mortality rate I guess when they consumed the coated plants. This is a natural problem specific to my location. So the takeaway is dipping all foliage in water first in the future. There are many hidden mysteries within nature, the more you dig in , the more questions you have.
Looks like less than 15 flyaways this year, but I accept that's how it goes.
Plenty of bugs spotted in the wild visiting this year, I'll take that.

Thanks to Connecticut Yankee for making the thread a success with his participation and hfunderground for the space and readers for their time.
