Of course, the Lantana blooms year round, but in October, it splashes color all over the yard - and the "visitors" help.

Thank you - I think he's hyper... The first two pictures were blurred because his wings were moving so fast.

Thanks Tasteyg! Looks like my horizons are expanding, may have to pick up a coffee-table book on moths and butterflies so I can make formal introductions. %>

Thank you Suey - I think he and Bilbo would make a sweet picture together. Now that we have the "National Audubon Society Field Guide to Butterflies," we can make formal introductions. Bilbo, meet the giant swallowtail. ;-)
