We have wild passion flowers in our area - near Atlanta GA - they transplant easily and are happy in full sun. We discovered that they are favored food for the Gulf Fritillary, a lovely butterfly. The caterpillars feed voraciously on the leaves (and even on the fruit); they can strip a "branch" of the passion flower rapidly, but the vine regrows rapidly. At one point we had passion flower vines climbing up our mailbox post.
See this: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gulf_fritillary These butterflies are fairly easy to shoot; I use a manual focus Vivitar 100mm macro to have a reasonable working distance. So far I have a fairly good series including mating (too far away to be ideal), growth of the caterpillars, feeding shots, adults enjoying flowers, etc. About all I lack is a shot of egg laying and emerging from its chrysalis.

Tell me. Do you ever post anything other than insults? I don't remember ever seeing a post from you of anything of substance, but I guess that is to be expected from a bird brain, per your avatar. Sort of insulting to birds, though.
BTW, still got some of your pharmacy's drugs on hand? Take a Valium and chill out.

Is the CDC a good enough sourcefor you? Check out the CDC numbers


And once again: it is at the least common courtesy to furnish a source citation. Otherwise how is your reader to know that you aren't just pulling stuff out of..... You surely can fill in the rest.

I try to tailor my responses to the obvious intellectual level of those to whom I respond...or is your vocabulary challenged by my message? Any words in that sentence beyond your comprehension?

No, just a pedophile, like daddy, AKA, Mr. Big.


Pure c**p. But we do have pretty good evidence that Widdle Donnie, a.k.a. Donald Trump, is a believably accused multiple rapist, not to mention a psychopath. He belongs in a locked ward in a mental hospital for the rest of his wretched life. Astounding that so many supposedly intelligent Americans voted for a huckster and a con man, to mention only two of his manifold short-comings.

And that is the proper pledge! Now I await the c**p from Architect and his minions.

Official Gov't stats. Just look it up. It's not a secret


That sort of excuse wouldn't be accepted in high school. Surely you learned better in high school, or did you?
Oh, BTW...which government??

About 30 million cases with less than 6 hundred thousand deaths. comes to 98% survival


Sorry. This is not a proper citation. Where did you find the source of your assertion "about 30 million cases...." Please cite a verifiable source.

So?


The phrase "under god" was inserted in, IIRC, 1954 as a poke at the Soviet Union. See this wiki: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pledge_of_Allegiance The flag is a symbol; one's respect and adherence to the Constitution is what really matters, regardless of the obscene spectacle of Mr Trump dry humping the flag.

Many have jumped to all kinds of wrong conclusions. regarding my original question regarding the vaccine. Facts--I got the Moderna vaccine. All the "Science" said it would protect me from contracting or passing the virus. But all of the "experts" have not changed the recommendations and still advise and wear masks, both indoor and outside.. So either the vaccine does not protect or it does. And if the Experts did not change the guidelines what good is the vaccine? The vaccine either protects or it doesn't. If it protects a high percentage (over 98%) of the public ( I used that number because 95% of positives do not get symptoms) the regs should be relaxed. And because they have not why det vaccinated in the first place?

You might ask my 42 year old daughter that question. She is a "long hauler," contracted COVID 19 just over a year ago. Fortunately she was never hospitalized, but she still suffers from fatigue and joint pains. She will see a rheumatologist to, we hope, rule out rheumatoid arthritis. Fortunately she has tenure at the college where she teaches. She was never a gym rat, but was physically fit.
BTW, can you cite a source for this? "If it protects a high percentage (over 98%) of the public ( I used that number because 95% of positives do not get symptoms)...."

Well, the Scandinavian countries which have rather socialist economies are doing extremely well, thank you very much!

Berchman didn't write it. It was plagerized, without attribution, from an article in the Washington Post, written by Ellen Nakashima, Shane Harris, Tom Hamburger.


Why can't people cite a source? Berchman isn't alone in this dishonest practice. Now you are accused of plagiarism. This would "earn" you a failing grade on any high school paper, let alone a college paper.

Operation Warp Speed was nothing more than a campaign gimmick!

When are you going to open your eyes to that reality?


Some folks cannot handle reality! Mr Trump is a huckster and con-man. He sells the sizzle, not the steak. He makes pronouncements, flits off to other interests, and leave others to clean up his messes.

And, IIRC, Donald and Melania and families got the vaccine at the White House IN SECRET! Hard to imagine Donald being embarrassed about anything.....

Ah, such reputable "journals." They are all claptrap. But of course if you're trying to find validation for a foolish premise you are reduced to grubbing around in garbage "journalism." Sad.....
