Bipalium kewense is a predatory flatworm. They wreak havoc on reglular ole' earthworms. Tough little buggers. I found this one patrolling my front stoop late at night after a decent series of thunderstorms.

The green tree frogs have arrived for the spring. The night of 14 March was the first green tree frog night of 2012. The afternoon/evening thunderstorms and the warming temperatures have beckoned the Green Ones to our windows!

This carpenterworm moth was loitering about my back patio. The first image was taken on 14 March (late at night), the second was taken on the following morning. The moth hung around for quite some time...
Thanks to anita363 for the identification help!

I found a group of three Eastern tiger swallowtails puddling on the edge of the Apalaha River just east of downtown Lakeland, Georgia. They were fairly ambivalent to my presence.

I believe this spider is Hogna carolinensis, the Carolina wolf spider. They're usually much darker, but I have seen identifications of individuals much lighter in tone -- similar to this one.
The spider was patrolling a sandy bend along the edge of Alapaha River just east of Lakeland, Georgia.
Any confirmation or corrections?
