monarch caterpillars

One of the reasons I came to Sunny Rock was to collect monarch caterpillars. I found quite a few on Ingoldsby. My 18 year old daughter has a good eye for finding them. There was a good supply of milkweed for me to feed the caterpillars. I brought in plastic terrariums. It was a good few days, as all my eggs hatched into baby caterpillars. The highlight was the birth of a monarch. I let it go two and a half hours after it was born and it posed on the orange lilies for a photo shoot with Sally and Jan.
