My Yard ~ American Lady Caterpillars

Jenny & I have been working hard with weeding the gardens, planting new flowers and mulching with salt marsh hay the past few days.  Salt marsh hay is a great mulch as it doesn't contain seed heads and helps to keep the weeds down & the soil moist after watering.  Today, while weeding in the back, Jenny found 6 American Lady caterpillars on the Pussytoes she planted.  We are excited as this is a first ever American Lady caterpillar for us and #4 caterpillar all total in the yard.
