Ditch Stonecrop, Hairy Willow Herb, Monarch Caterpillar and Egg, Pearly Wood Nymph
Wet ditches and swamps are habitat for Ditch Stonecrop.
Damp thickets and waste places are home to Hairy Willow Herb.
A few Monarch caterpillars can be seen on milkweed along with Monarch's eggs.
A moth called the Pearly Wood Numph posed nicely while I took several pictures. This moth's resemblence to bird droppings is thought to protect it from predation.
