This is an update about the moths I captured as caterpillars.
The moths turned out to be Achaea janata.
This one below was No.3 Moth. There it is looking at a flower from the plant
where I found the caterpillars.
I had dipped the flowers in a honey/water dilute mix.
The moths seemed to enjoy having a drink of the mix.
This moth was great ... really calm.


As you can see the moth is not frightened,
this was his/her last meal before Freedom!

The doubtful seedling is looking crook! (previous post)

I think it will cark it! Good news though... another seed popped up.

Tally 92 +7=99 +1 (new) = 100 (only temporary I'm afraid)

(I included the new seedling in the garden to the seedling tally.)

Cheers!
