Boynton Beach, FL ~ Green Cay Wetlands & Nature Center ~ Atala Butterfly

I first heard about the Atala Butterfly several years ago and saw it in captivity.  But with Coontie being replanted their populations are increasing.  At Green Cay Wetlands & Nature Center the Atala butterflies have returned in good numbers.  I saw at least 12 yesterday but didn't find any caterpillars so decided to go back today and look again today with good success.
