Spot them !

Soon I will see the Lime Butterfly again in my garden.  See if you can spot the 'babies' ....


A caterpillar and a pupa.... Not so clear ? ...See next picture !


 The caterpillar is more distinct in the second picture  ... ! It has really eaten a lot, and here it seemed a bit sluggish.


The next day we were surprised to see that the caterpillar had changed into a pupa as well.....  And the first pupa has turned a darker color as well....


Now these are what I found on my jackfruit tree....
I have seen them before, but often they dropped after a couple of  weeks.   My jackfruit tree was just not mature  to bear fruits yet, I guess.  This time I counted 4 of these tiny fruits,  maybe I will be lucky this time - with at least even one fruit ? What are the odds...?




The two Rangoon Creepers seem happy  ..... they have been  blooming like nobody's business !  I just cannot resist taking a picture ..... !



I took this  photo just  for Onenezz at http://onenezz.blogspot.com. ..... ! My pink hibiscus has started blooming again daily ..... so is the red.....! Both of them certainly look good together ..... lolz !


Last for this blog today - the leaves of the  Leucophyllum  ( see posts dated Aug, 29, 2010 and Jan 6, 2011) are  turning light green (earlier they were more silver grey) from standing in the porch !  Perhaps  this is due to the plant  not getting as much sun as it used to under direct sunlight.  And the Barometer Bush (other name for the Leucophyllum) was  'Spot On' ! It bloomed today and it did rained !  There had been no rain for some days now !
