Hmmm...and I thought all the Mormons were in the USA! Singapore is pretty far away for them to be common, isn't it?Thank you!
It's called a Common Mormon (Papilio polytes romulus)

I've heard slugs really like their beer, and who really wants a bunch of drunk slugs in their garden.Maybe next year I can try that, if I can keep the slugs and ants at bay.
"Yelling and screaming and acting obscene!"I've heard slugs really like their beer, and who really wants a bunch of drunk slugs in their garden.
If you want to see "inebriated" you need to see robins after they've had a bellyful of pyracantha berries.I've heard slugs really like their beer, and who really wants a bunch of drunk slugs in their garden.
I used to bowl with a guy who grew apples, peaches, and pears. Sometimes they couldn't harvest the fruit before it fell to the ground, and would start to decompose. He would tell of the deer staggering around after eating the fermented fruit, drunk out of their skulls.If you want to see "inebriated" you need to see robins after they've had a bellyful of pyracantha berries.
Errr........there are Mormons in Singapore tooHmmm...and I thought all the Mormons were in the USA! Singapore is pretty far away for them to be common, isn't it?
Thank you. Thew butterfly wasn't deterred by my presence as I laid low to get the shot. Guess it was busy enjoying his booze.I love that butterfly photo! The contrast is amazing, the colors gorgeous and the details are exquisite. You caught a moment in time that is beautiful.
Nice peaceful place.I got to see a view that I haven’t seen in a long time. Islands. Ahhhh.
n this part of the country, it's kind of late in the season to be attracting butterflies, since most of the flowers are done blooming. Too, there hasn't been any beer in the house in years so there is that.
I can just imagine them paying a spider to spin out their zip line! Never put anything past a drunken butterfly!I don't want to miss the butterfly frat party! *Hoping they won't make a zipline like in "The Social Network"!*
For the slugs, bury a bowl in the ground and fill with beer. The slugs will crawl in and drown. But they WILL die drunk and happy. Ants...dunno. I spray those little pests. Have to keep them off of the ferals.if I can keep the slugs and ants at bay.
LOL, I do not, but I can print some!Do you have a framed copy of that? Christmas is coming and that would make great gifts!
Yeah, but do they sing in teeny little butterfly choirs, with VEEEEEEEEY high voices?Errr........there are Mormons in Singapore too
Maybe in their super tight underwear?Yeah, but do they sing in teeny little butterfly choirs, with VEEEEEEEEY high voices?
Now I have a mental image of drunken slugs wobbling along
Gorgeous pics. Looks like a very peaceful place.I had errands today that took me a bit far from home. I got to see a view that I haven’t seen in a long time. Islands. Ahhhh.
They certainly were partying! Who is that halfway up the door?When I got home the cats were not having their own party.
but I've sen some of them walking aroundSo there's a Mormon Tabernacle over there, too?
Despite my joking about slugs, they've been a pain all summer, with devouring most of my hostas. So not really a fan of them.Don't get me started about slugs. Last month I had an awful time with them.
Sounds disgusting.On that weekend the slugs kept getting into the bowls. I had 8 slugs in the bowls one night. Talk about gross!!! I almost tossed my cookies.
LOL. At least you didn't lose your sense of humour.I called that weekend Slugalapooza!!! What a slugs fest.
Thanks You need a good sense of humor when feeding outdoor kitties. You see a lot of strange and at times gross things. Some kitties have brought dead mice to me as a . My reaction is "Really, you shouldn't have!" Then I want to puke. Poor mice.LOL. At least you didn't lose your sense of humour.
Actually, according to some "experts" they are showing you what a lousy hunter/provider you are and trying to teach you how to do it. Not sure who's right.Thanks You need a good sense of humor when feeding outdoor kitties. You see a lot of strange and at times gross things. Some kitties have brought dead mice to me as a .

Oh, well that is just the way it is. I guess it is their way of expressing their fondness for me. I am sure Jcatbird and other cat caretakers have some crazy stories to share as well. One thing is for sure-- taking care of outdoor kitties is not for the weak of heart.
Haha!!! I guess they gave up on me, too. They must have been terminally disappointed in my lack of hunting skills. I would make one lousy cat! Now let me hang my head in shame.Actually, according to some "experts" they are showing you what a lousy hunter/provider you are and trying to teach you how to do it. Not sure who's right.
Our beloved angel Tarifa always brought me twinkle balls, dropping them either in the room or in the doorway and often yelling. She gave up on me when I failed to deliver after numerous attempts, and started in on my roomies, who were no better.
We miss this.
Well, they ARE the superior species, in every way but one -- they lack the opposable thumbs necessary to pop the can tops.Haha!!! I guess they gave up on me, too. They must have been terminally disappointed in my lack of hunting skills. I would make one lousy cat! Now let me hang my head in shame.
