We came from here:
The thread "December 2014 Butterflies, Moths & Larva" in
Gardening for Butterflies, Birds and Bees forum
Well, it's pretty slow around here. The only butterfly I saw was one Cassius Blue that, as usual, would not stop. So it's larva and chrysalis day!
I found this really funny. You know that Monarch that came out on Christmas Eve? Well, another caterpillar thought that was also a really good spot to pupate and so now I have this.
And a milkweed with three caterpillars! I moved two to other plants but left the middle one alone because I had a sense he might be thinking about pupating.
And I have many other large Monarch cats making frass to fertilize my soil.
And I have a medium size cat. Giant Milkweed leaves are big, FYI.
And a little guy is snacking on my flowers. I hate when when they do that, but you can't stop them.
