| Wow that's gorgeous!  i love it. I googled 'blue dot butterfly' and it came up with: http://www.brisbaneinsects.com/brisbane_nymphs/BlueTiger.htm http://calamvalecreek.awardspace.com/belinda.html Blue tiger butterfly, Tirumala hamata apparently their' caterpillars food plant are a few vining milkweeds, so its not going to lay its eggs on your cacti. |

| Thanks Lewis. Good to know it's not a cactus muncher :-)
Plenty of weeds in my garden at the moment. Lots of butterfly food. |

I'm also finding the weeds to be a great snail attractant too... I swear the buggers are coming from miles around to feast on my garden.
Escargot anyone...?  |
