A ragged, torn wing male appeared in the yard this afternoon and began to try to drive off the other six monarchs already here. A few hours earlier I released a female that eclosed yesterday and a male cruising by in the yard and snatch her to mate in a nearby neighbor's tree. Found 10+ 5th instar monarch caterpillars still outside and just over 25 pupae.
