Your little babies are growing up. Nice image Angela.
Thanks so much, Marty!! They eat and grow so fast, I can't believe it... thankfully Peconic Herb Farm still had milkweed plants... I bought two more!

Angela, thank you for the seeds and I have seen a couple of Monarchs but were not able to get any photos. FYI, this update is awesome and unexpected. You have been missed by many UHH members.

Thanks so much, Greg, for your kind words... always appreciated!!! If you need more seeds, let me know, I have plenty!! These little critters certainly keep me busy and I can't believe how fast they eat and grow!!! Many more to finish raising and then the rest have to take care of themselves!!
Take care and hope all is well!!

What Mike just said, outstanding Angela!
Many thanks, nim!! This has been a record breaking year with the amount of Monarchs I've raised and have seen in my garden... I had to buy 2 more plants just so I'd have enough leaves!!
Glad you liked!

How wonderful Angela! you have become quite the caretaker of nature in such a short time. Congratulations my friend! I will be needing some bean vine seeds at the end of the season if you can spare any. Mine were doing so well and didn't survive the move.

Fantastic, Angela and watched the video of them attaching and forming their chrysalis and them emerging, with Ellen this morning--- excellent work! Actively has increased and we are now seeing more tiger and black swallowtails, monarchs, silver spotted skippers, and snowberry clearwing moths so these hot (95 degrees) and humid days must agree with them. Keep up the great work and you and David take care!
Thanks so much, Corky.... as many times as I watch that video, it still amazes me!!! So glad to hear you have a nice variety of butter fluttering around your garden... if the heat agrees with them, they're in for a treat the next few days!! It's going to be hot!!!
Corky, I sent Ellen a message through fb messenger.... I don't know if she has it or not, but I wanted you to know that our friend Phil is at peace now and I know he is flying around his garden in no pain.
Take care and stay cool!!!
