Monarchs!

I've been working on taking pictures of all things nature so when I do PowerPoints or have other needs for pictures, I don't have to care about copyright infringement.

ON THAT NOTE... All photos copyrighted by me. IF you want to use them... ASK FIRST!

Back to the topic at hand. This was the first summer I raised monarchs from egg to butterfly. I tried to get pictures of each stage. Enjoy!


Egg


1 Day old


Major stages - the largest was 2 days away from pupating


Chrysalis


Ready to emerge


This happened in August when I was still at Sibley, but I am just getting around to posting it now. One of my goals on my Bucket List was to see a Monarch come out of it's chrysalis. I did one better!! I got it on film!!
