| I've put down thick manure/wood shavings very deep in three large beds. The butterflies are everywhere "puddling" in the manure. I vaguely remember they're after minerals so they have the necessities to make whoopee. They're puddling in clusters, and it's a sight to behold. |

| It is, Cath. I've never seen quite so many as this year. I've never put the manure down at quite this time of year, so maybe that's the difference. |

| A man's got to do what a man's got to do. I've read the males do it to get minerals to make sperm. Do the girls do it, too? I don't know. |
