Although it's late, I still have some monarch pupae from eggs collected at the end of August and the beginning of September. One eclosed October 3rd, with the temperature expected to rise above 60 degrees. I took it to the Minneapolis Lake Harriet Rose Garden for release. It sat for a couple minutes, then flew to a tree where it paused for several more minutes before stopping on a patch of sweet Alyssum and nectaring an a half dozen tiny flowers.
