Observation date: May 15, 2024
Submitted by: Diane R Halpin
Specimen type: Photograph
Observation notes: I didn’t expect to see it feeling on tropical milkweed since we have an organic garden full of blooming attractant flowers and trees, especially the chaste trees and butterfly bushes, but it seemed to prefer the milkweed.
