I have loads of butterflies in my garden and I suppose it was just a matter of time before this showed up

These things are so yucky if you step on one. When I was a kid they used to scare me to death. Still do I think...

Hi Sue

Great picture.

Was it over Asclepia curassavica?

It was on Asclepias syriaca, a common milkweed

I can't really say they are pretty, but these things sure are astounding.
