Enter the Wonderful World of Swallowtail Butterflies
A number of years ago I planted an anise plant. I enjoy herb gardening and this was just part of it. Then I noticed little "things" which I believed to be caterpillars. I watched and soon discovered that the birds enjoyed eating them. I did some research and sure enough they were black swallowtail caterpillars. More research and the help of an online friend and and I started raising swallowtails.
I will share my knowledge, my methods, my photos and my Zazzle butterfly products with you on this blog. I will also invite other Zazzle friends to share their butterfly products of swallowtails and other butterfly species.

They are hard to see
They are hard to see, I've tried to enlarge this photo so you can get a better idea of what they look like. The important thing is that not everything that eats plants is bad & perhaps you might consider leaving some plants in your garden for other creatures - you never know they may be beautiful.
