St Petersburg, FL ~ More Butterflies at Boyd Hill Nature Preserve

Monarch Caterpillar

 Another great afternoon of seeing butterflies at Boyd Hill Nature Preserve.  My day ended with a total of 23 species which is amazing considering how few plants there are on which to nectar.  I saw my first Monarch Caterpillar of 2017 which was neat considering it will be mid to late July before I will see any at home in NJ
