On 9/13/20 and 9/14/20 two 5th instar caterpillars were found and reported on this site. They were both brought to a cage that was outside but protected from wind. A few days in early October when it was really cold the cage was brought indoors. Both emerged from their chysalises, one on 10/11, the other on 10/13. The earlier seemed not to be able to fly. The photo is of the second one. It was released 10/13/20. The temperature was above 60 but windy. 10/14 was also above 60. Hope it headed south. (Both were males). One more in a chrysalis.
