I admit that here in SW Washington state I'm green with envy reading about all the butterflies out and about this time of year in the south. We've only had a couple of nights without frost this year so far and have reached 60 degrees only once or twice. But I had my first butterfly sighting this year today, so I'm suddenly not feeling so green anymore. This California Tortoiseshell came to visit me in my greenhouse. Took me forever to catch him (her?) to put him back outside. Those nibbled on wings didn't seem to slow him down at all.
Rufus hummingbirds should be back in another week or two. I can't wait! We had an Anna's hummingbird hang around during the winter, but we only saw her 4 or 5 times. One of our neighbors has had 3 Anna's at her feeders daily this winter.
