After about 8 days they began eclosing... Here is one of the first 4... The other 3 flew away quickly, and this one stayed to hangout on the mother plant a while. They all came back regularly to nectar on flowers in my garden.

They really like Salvias of all kind...particularly the Black and Blue. http://davesgarden.com/guides/pf/showimage/183822/

I found that they like to drink from most of the same flowers that hummers like also.
