Released 2 female butterflies at 11:30 am. This is in addition to the 2 females released earlier in the week. I have 6 more chrysalis'/caterpillars.
I saw many eggs this year so I don't think the low numbers are due to lack of milkweed, as there is plenty. Unfortunately, every plant contains a spider so the caterpillar that hatches doesn't stand a chance, which is why I do what I do.
