You can follow our wonderful monarch butterfly release that happened yesterday here.

If you keep scrolling down, you can return to the beginning, when "Alex the Great" was just an egg, 38 days before emerging from his crysalis.

I remember one year raising 13 monarch eggs to butterflies! It's the year when many monarchs were burned in fires, and we lost a large population, and they were asking people to help raise them.

We did this for two years, and loved every second of it! What amazed me is realizing these little creatures seem to actually have different personalities when they emerge!!!

This is something I really want to do again. Maybe next summer.......I notice monarchs now all the time.
