Finally, three BST eclosed this morning. I haven't yet determined if these three are from the original 5 chrysalis or not. If you remember my ordeal with these five, one elcosed crippled after only pupating 6 days. There were four chrysalis from June 28th that I've been waiting on to eclose. Now in the cage are many, many chrysalis. I'll have to count again. Seems every time I count I get a new number. Oh well, what counts the most are how many that are released healthy.

Here are several pictures of the three newly emerged Eastern Black Swallowtails.
