An online journal of our quest to make a tiny piece of Florida suburbia into a wildlife-friendly oasis.

Zebra Crossing
Lately, zebra longwings have been hanging around My Florida Backyard, and this morning we finally managed to get a good picture.
Our state butterfly seems to particularly enjoy the nectar of the native blue porterweed, and lay their eggs on passionvine. We've found several eggs on ours, and are looking forward to raising a few caterpillars. Watch for pictures soon!
