Today I released two monarch butterflies, reared in captivity. The male originated from an egg I collected off a milkweed plant over-run by aphids. The egg hatched on 7/26. The female butterfly was captured as a 7-day old caterpillar. Both are healthy and beautiful! They are #11 and #12 of the captive-reared monarchs I have released this year. Way Station #9418.
