Bugs

Yesterday, we found the biggest butterfly I have ever seen in our breezeway. This morning, we found this giant camo colored bug (Steve says it's a tobacco bug) Noah and Ben are calling it the 'army bug'. The butterfly was on the floor of the breezeway this morning and Keely decided to step on it and bite it. I don't know if she killed it, but it's gone now.
Noah also spotted a tiny frog in the grass Friday so we put it in the garden. Hopefully, it will eat the little bugs in the garden.

How about female Tiger Swallowtail butterfly (males are yellow.) And Pandorus Sphinx-attracted to petunias. Larva eat Virginia Creeper and grape Leaves, I presume.) I like Army bug better. But there is an army worm--nasty pest of wheat.
