Monarch, Captive-Reared

Date: 09/17/2015

Number: 2

Lat.: 40.92 Long.: -77.76 Mostly sunny today.

The last two butterflies that we've raised emerged from their chrysalides this morning. (They each had been on their own swamp milkweed plant, several of which we had raised in pots from seeds, and which we kept on our dining room table. When the caterpillars decided it was time to find a place to become chrysalides, they both managed to escape, eventually crawling under the table, where they've been hanging the past week or so). One took flight this morning; the other waited until this afternoon to head out. Each is a female.
