These were the first two of nine captive-reared Monarchs that eclosed from Oct. 27-30. The weather during this period was cold and wet until Oct. 30, and none of the butterflies was interested in flying until today. Monarch No. 9 eclosed late in the afternoon and was not ready to leave by the time the temperature started dropping, so he's spending another night with me. Seven more to go, and it looks like three of them will eclose tomorrow.
