This year we left lots of milkweed plants growing in the garden in hopes of getting some monarch butterfly caterpillars. No luck! In fact, we only saw one or two monarch butterflies the entire summer!
But we have some photos from a couple years ago to show everyone.
Oh! We hope the monarchs are alright. Hopefully nex' year, yule see sum.
ReplyDeleteThanks fur the piccies. Such purdy critters. An so cool that they do their thing so quickly.
So very beautiful Chester!!! We heard that there were lots of monarchs in the Midwest USA....but we haven't seen any here in Northern California either!

We were sooooo lucky to get those photos! It was amazing!

Lovely to see pix of the whole process and we have had quite a few butterflies this year but mainly plain Jane's. Have a tremendous Thursday.

ReplyDeleteLove monarchs but we don't see many of them. Thanks for sharing them with us!

Nice to hear from you guys. Long time, no bark!
DeleteWhat a beautiful butterfly :-)
ReplyDeleteMommy's friend sent her some milkweed seeds so she could get some monarchs, but the milkweed didn't even want to grow properly. Home monarchs aren't going to go extinct. Great photos you have there.
ReplyDeleteYou can get a tropical type of milkweed that grows well in Florida. It's a lot smaller, and it has pretty orange flowers. The monarchs love it just as much as the regular kind.
