Dale, what a beautiful specimen. I'm still looking for a GPH. They should be in my area and there is a lot of host mistletoe throughout the western Arkansas River Valley for them.
A big surprise, a Goatweed leafwing decided to nectar the verbena. I thought that they were a sap / scat only butterfly. Then a first for me, a Giant Swallowtail visited the verbena. One of the resident Tiger ST tried to hog the verbena but the Giant ST held in place.
A really nice day.
