What a legacy you have left me! Every time I look at these butterflies and in my mind see you squatted down or stretched out on the ground, camera in hand, to get a butterfly shot I will miss you so much. I love you, darling. You bring so much joy into my life. No mother could have a better daughter! And one so talented in many ways.

Greetings,
Your butterfly images are beautiful.

I am ‘desperately seeking’ good spots to see butterflies in Smith County, Texas.

If you are willing to make suggestions to my email address I will be extremely grateful.

Thanks for your time.

Comment on Pipevine Swallowtail (Battus philenor) by Rod Angeroth

I’ve had success in attracting the Pipevine swallowtail in Western Iowa by planting Virginia snakeroot, which is a smallish non-invasive woodland native (shade-loving). It is not a plant normally offered by nurseries, but I will have plants available as rootstock this fall (2007) for those butterfly enthusiasts who wish to attract PVS to their gardens.

Comment on Little Wood Satyr (Megisto cymela) by Marty

Very interesting use of the blog format – and very well done. Love the photos I’ve had the time to peruse, and the information you’ve given. My wife and I are hoping to make a trip back down to Texas in October to see some of the many great butterflies you have down there – I think we added a dozen new species on our last trip and we weren’t even really there for them (in March on a birding trip).

I hope to keep coming back to see more soon.

P.S. Like the theme your using (I use a modified version of the same one).
