7. Yes I had a large one who disappeared.

And another smaller one who is dead in the dirt so I am going to take a small fish tank and set them in it. I am surprised by how fast they grow. Just yesterday they were
half their size. I bought another parsley plant for them.
Luckily it's organic and on clearance at the grocery store. The butterflies love my compost pile which I am not very good about turning regularly. The raccoon has been eating my old squash. I'm just surprised I have not seen the opossum there. I did come across a black woolly, also known as a giant leopard moth caterpillar.
