    Thank you. I have seen the butterflies too, and many of them, but I didn't know their caterpillars looked like this.

                              In case you can not find the skunk, it is hiding behind the Witch Hazel plant. :)
                              Witch Hazel flowers in the cold to take advantage of any late pollinators that may be hanging around during a warm spell. At least that is what I have been told. :scratch:
