*************These are shots from last spring. I am hoping to get more of the same. I looked out off and on all day to see if my swallowtail from yesterday hsd returned, but I guess the wind was too strong.
There is all manner of life happening in my lilacs bushes. It is fun to sit in my sanctuary, observing and photographing. The yellow swallowtail, I know; but does anyone know the names of the two moths?
Update: The Bug People at “What’s that Bug?” say it is a painted Lady. I thought it looked like it, but the body seemed much bigger. An obese painted lady!)
The Bug People say this is a White-lined Sphinx moth.

Lovely photos and thoughts about repeating these shots. Hope so!
I’ve been checking, but got waylaid by a grandchild’s arrival. And that is just fine! 🙂
How beautiful ! Happy Sunday…sorry I haven’t been around more. I”m trying to get on the ball….it really is fun to blog. Somehow I put blogging on the back burner since hubby retired. We went to a craft fair today about an hour away and I’m beat. My age is telling a story to me now and again…and more again. =)
Nice to see you. 🙂 So much life happening. Isn’t this the time to sit still, sip tea, and read good books? Whew. I feel like I’m in a marathon.
