In the past few days, two very beautiful and healthy looking female monarchs emerged from their chrysalises inside a large screen box in my house. I released them into my garden. They each remained for about half an hour to sun themselves and exercise their wings and then flew up into our pine trees. The weather has been erratic in temperatures ranging from 29 to 74, but it was in the seventies and fairly sunny when they emerged. We have one more chrysalis and believe that adult will emerge in the next few days.
