It was a small 1 cm caterpillar that my mother found in some salad. It was eating lettuce and growing quite well. I kept it in an open box on the balcony on the washer, started to take pictures of it, waiting for it to make a nymph, and then discovering the emerging adult insect, most probably a butterfly,when suddenly it got lost, it escaped, and I looked and looked, it vanished, I guess it found a quiet and discrete place to change into a nymph.
As the days go by
This blog was specially dedicated to my bro Fadi, when he was in Qatar ,working there, so he could stay updated with us living in Beirut. Now it is for everyday posting, for whatever passes in my mind.
