We released 12 monarch butterflies today -- all raised from eggs found in our garden. Seven had eclosed on 8/26 and remained inside overnight because of rain, cold, and winds from the south. Five more eclosed during the day today (8/27). It was a good day to release, with the temperature going up, the sun shining at least intermittently, and a wind from the north.
