During the fall we collected eggs from my milkweed patch and raised and released 23 butterflies. That included bringing some caterpillars and a big supply of milkweed on our beach vacation with us at the end of September! This is a picture of my son with our October 4th batch. We just released the last 2 yesterday (October 16th). Earlier this April/May we raised and released 11 as the monarchs made their migration north through the US. It's been a great year for our milkweed and our butterflies!
