ORANGE SULPHUR ON COASTAL MISTFLOWER

I'm not sure it is an Orange Sulpher....but I'm sure about the Mistflower. The
butterflies love it, and it has just started blooming profusely. I brought a plant
with two little leaves from Rockport in 2002, and now it is taller than I am!

Here is a sample of what was there today: http://www.pbase.com/petesie/image/34943123
The Queens were out in big numbers as well as Monarchs, Gulf Fritillaries and Painted Ladies.

This was a close second: A Queen http://www.pbase.com/petesie/image/34943116

I looked for your pad yesterday and didn't see it and now as if by magic it appears. This is a beauty petesie. I can't find this critter in my bug book though so I can't help out with identification.

Petesie, this is exceptional! You can actually see the scales on the butterfly's wings. Wonderful work!
