Been away from posting here for a while, trying to get through the winter. My spice bush is telling me spring is here, finally.

A time lapse of a #spicebush #swallowtail #caterpillar going through the process of turning into a pupae, where it will overwinter before undergoing #metamorphosis into a #butterfly and emerging in the Spring. You can clearly see the silk harness it looped around its upper body to hold it in place.

A timelapse of a #spicebush #swallowtail #caterpillar preparing for #metamorphosis by attaching itself to the surface with silk at the bottom, then creating a silk sling for its upper body to hang from. It gets into a set position at the end, where it stays for several hours before it pupates.

This is either an Eastern Black Swallowtail or Spicebush butterfly. 
Mostly black butterfly with white, orange, and blue markings on a parsley plant.

Eastern Black Swallowtail, or Spicebush Swallowtail? It laid eggs on my parsley, squash, and licorice plants. Going to have to wait to see what the caterpillars look like. 🐛

What’s in bloom today? The yellow blooms of Lindera benzoin (Spicebush). This is a native shrub/understory tree that flowers before it leafs out. This native plant is a larval host plant for Spicebush Swallowtail Butterflies. It produces berries in autumn that attracts birds and mammals.

Begone umbral winter The spring equinox has passed, so light has the upper hand now. Darkness creeps away. The plants in Shakerag Hollow know this and are starting to crack out of their winter shells.

#Maple leaves fallen with not a hint of gold or crimson. #Sourwood and #spicebush pick up the slack: the understory is ablaze in the dusk.
