Sally that is a really great picture! The color is so intense on the new monarchs. I just love them.

I have 11 chrysalis, a few are getting dark ready to emerage, I have never spotted a chrysalis in the "wild" I guess they are hard to spot for me and they do not seem to stay on the milk weed where they were hatched and ate.

Here is a picture I took to show the girls at work.

The rush is on to get these babies hatched and on their way, the nights are dropping down into the low 50º s and some days it is very over
cast. Just a few more days of warmth and sun.
