Monarch hunt

August 22nd, 2010

It was a nice rainy cool day to be out on a hunt for Monarch caterpillars. After going to several milkweed plants and finding many kinds of insects, snails, earthworms and slugs, we finally spotted what we were looking for. A Monarch caterpillar and an egg are new guests in our house.

This year, we didn’t order any caterpillars from Insectlore to watch them turn into butterflies. So, the kids are really excited to follow the progress of this caterpillar and the egg. Here are a couple of photos and expect several updates.
