It's been a great spring. I had about 80 over-wintering Black Swallowtails in chrysalis this past winter. I have 24 left to go. All the rest were successfully eclosed as a black swallowtail butterfly except for one which was a wasp. Two eclosed this AM. Here's one of them on Lantana where I put it to finish drying his wings. I also have new eggs on my parsly for a new crop.
