Today, all of these amazing visitors stopped by to feed on the Purple Coneflower (Echinacea purpurea):
1. Eastern Giant Swallowtail — Papilio cresphontes
2. Black Swallowtail — Papilio polyxenes
3. Eastern Tiger Swallowtail — Papilio glaucus
4. Monarch — Danaus plexippus
Another reminder that planting with a purpose really does make a difference.
