Before lunch hours here. I've five Monarchs. Temp. outdoor is rather cool and windy. I'll watch and see how long does it take for these lovely butterflies to take flight. Yesterday, we'd quite a bit of sunshine -- temp. went up to the 80F, but the spot that I've chosen to release the butterflies stayed shady until the afternoon hours. I noticed some of the butterflies hung on to their "training wheels" for hours -- which was all good. That enabled me to take more pics. to share. Grins.

Here is one that was just released. 4 more still are drying their wings in the butterflies house.

Ooops, as I typed, the 6th monarch just eclosed!
