“Look, you woke me up at 4:30 a.m. What’d you think would happen? Of course I’m walking on you, head-butting you, licking your face! Cats got two modes: totally uninterested, and all up in your shit. I’m in mode #2. Don’t like it? Then you shouldn’t have turned over in bed, should you have? Pet me!”

I’d never catch a butterfly. Too softhearted. I take photos. Or just enjoy them and learning about them. Two friends have farms, at which I’ve been living, with butterfly populations. I met this Eastern tiger swallowtail a couple months ago at one of those farms, where a lot of red tithonia grows.

American Lady nectaring on red tithonia. I took this photo on Janisse Ray’s farm in south Georgia. It’s a butterfly haven.
