The annual invasion of the swallowtails has begun ?
The territorial claims have been made and my back porch no longer belongs to me. Nest building (and rebuilding to momma's exact standards) is starting.
I love listening to their conversations and arguments, and the babies are some of the derpiest looking little buggers, each with their own personality in just a couple weeks out of the shell.
But the little shits sure do mean business when keeping the nests safe. I'm not joking when I tell people I might have to start getting my mail with a helmet on.
And the poop... So... Much... Poop... ?
If they can at least do a better job of getting rid of mosquitoes we'll be on the right track.
