I am a torn and conflicted man -- I grow vines for the hort department and I must do a good job, because the butterflies love them. I came back today to find 36 assorted passsifloras stripped naked by caterpillars. Just as I was getting started on a fearsome rant, I spotted a gulf fritillary just out of its chrysalis. How can you stay mad?

On the plus side, our golden paper wasps have a taste for frit crawlies
