I'd been observing a monarch larvae on a milkweed in my raspberry patch south of Paradise,Utah. On 9/2/20 I retrieved it and brought it indoors, bringing fresh milkweed daily. On 9/13/20 it emerged from its chrysalis. It was a male. When its wings were dry I released it and it perched for a few minutes on a large blue spruce before flying away.
