Raising Butterflies

We finally sent away for the caterpillars and have been watching their progression to becoming Painted Lady butterflies.  The larvae munched and munched and quickly grew to be caterpillars. It seemed not long after that when they began creating the homes from which they'll emerge transformed into their beautiful new selves. The chrysalids are themselves quite pretty, studded with gold. Now, we watch and wait.
