We have guests

This is not as important as babies, but...

I do believe our dillbed has become home to some black swallowtail caterpillars.


I think it's handsome


I counted about a half-dozen, as well as some skins they left from when they molted! They make beautiful butterflies, and we should still have plenty of dill left over for our cucumber salads.

In other garden news, I had to tear out the squash plant (blossom end rot, augh!), but our tomato and pepper plants are sagging under the weight of ripening fruit.

We also have a pretty flower.



That is our clematis!
