Thanks Dale...let me ask you a question that you have probably answered a million times already. I have not been on DG for almost a year. Someone asked me if it was thier imagination or is their an abundance of butterflies this year. In my garden I am loaded with them so I happily say yes, I thought the drought may have affected the count negatively.
If you already answered this question point me to the thread. And can I quote you?
