The morning that we woke up to find our last black tiger swallowtail had emerged and said goodbye to it we also discovered the arrival of our first monarch. I love the monarch cocoons. They are so beautiful. I have never looked closely enough at them to see the small specks of gold that surround their cocoons until we started hatching them.
This is a picture of three of our critters at work. The first butterfly to emerge, one in its cocoon and the other as Jonathan says, "tying his back end to the lid."

Love that there were 3 in different stages hanging out together.
