Thank You. The site looks interesting, but I think it will take me a while to learn to navigate.

Beautiful.
You've hit the deck running. That is a stunning shot.

This is an awesome Web design, so be prepared. It never ceases to amaze. Plus the content.

American Snout

by nancy wyman

, on Flickr

This is very like the European Libythea celtis, or Nettle Tree butterfly, and both species' lh plants are nettle trees. Interesting that they have evolved slightly differently, in that your American Snout has more white on the upperside and will sit with its wings open, whereas the Nettle Tree does not - well, of the hundreds we saw in Greece this year, puddling, not one had their wings open while at rest, unfortunately.

This is good to see as Monarchs are very close to being considered Endangered. They already are listed Endangered in Canada and should be in the U.S.

In Michigan, I've only seen about a dozen so far this year, & my milkweed 'farm' has only had two caterpillars so far. A few years ago, assassin bugs killed the only one I found.
