swallowtail

A yellow swallowtail came through! I have been watching for the return of butterflies for a few weeks. I've only seen a few Red Admirals, possibly one Painted Lady, but not a single Monarch. I do hope they are just delayed.

@30pics4jackiesdiamond The decline in pollinators is so worrisome. I'm not just missing butterflies this year. I'm missing bees too.
