Here's a picture of the chrysalis before it turned dark and the butterfly eclosed. By the way, these are pictures of the Giant ST chrysalis. I showed some of these to the kids on "Bring Your Child to Work Day". They were all, "That's an ugly caterpillar". I explained how he was camouflaged as a bird dropping and they all went "eww". But then I showed them what the butterfly looked like and they all went, "Wow!" Kids are so cute.
