Spring 2018
After a long, bitter winter, I was surprised to see that my milkweed has sprouted quickly with the warmer May weather. Excited to welcome back the monarchs!

Released my final butterfly on Saturday, Oct 21. He was beautiful and one I found as a 4th instar on my milkweed. He only spent one day eating and then formed his crysalis. So glad he emerged healthy and strong! He picked a lovely sunny day to eclose and joined several other monarchs migrating through the garden!
I tagged 16 butterflies this summer. I hope they make it to Mexico!
