It's exciting to see butterflies so early. If I understood a report on the radio, red admirals reproduce several times over the summer and then migrate back to Texas in the fall. We are predicted to have a large population of them this summer.

We've got more Red Admirals than I have ever seen before at the moment here in Hamilton. They're everywhere! A hike with the kids through Coote's Paradise on RBG grounds was amazing, everywhere we looked there were "flutterbies" as my 3yr old calls them

Glad to hear you and your children are having the same experience as I am, Mostly Weeds. It might be a long time before that happens again!
