Black swallowtail
Found a black swallowtail caterpillar on the carrots about a week, week and a half ago. Turned into a chrysalis within two days. Brought inside, turned into a butterfly today. Farewell!

Sowed carrots, beets, lettuce
In the vacated zucchini spaces, sowed:
- carrots in the space near the patio stones (where I plan to have next year's carrot bed)
- beets near the peas (just a few in among the green onions)
- bok choy and lettuce in one of the middle spaces

Zucchinis all kaput and removed
Came home from camping today to find two of the plants clearly mostly gone and the other two on their way out, all due to the borer. So, pulled them all out.
