Thanks. I haven't seen as many caterpillars. I think the birds have been eating most of them. I actually sat by my passion vine and I saw a female Gulf Fritillary laying eggs on several leaves. I've never seen a butterfly lay eggs before.

It really was. She didn't seem to mind me being there. It was definitely an amazing sight.
