Thank you for the update Angela, you are amazing and so is the posted image. 
Many thanks, Mike, for your always kind words.... I've always been a cat person and volunteered at an animal shelter for 8 years with those furry little felines.... I think my life has come full circle with caring for these other cats!!! LOL...

Hi Everyone.... just thought I'd give an update on my Monarch family!!
To date, I have released #27 with 6 in chrysalis just waiting to emerge, 1in J-Hook and lots of little ones still running around and I'm still finding eggs on the plants outside... unless I accidentally bring one in on the leaves, the rest will have to fend for themselves .... I have about 12 eggs in the incubator!!!
With all that, I did have 8 deaths....
This has been an exceptional year for the Monarchs in my garden and on Long Island!!
I also want to let you know I have lots of SwampMilkweed seeds if anyone wants.... I will gladly mail them out, just send me a PM with your address!!
Plant them and they will come!!!

Monarch Mama has done it again, not only releasing your babies which you have nurtured to adulthood, but for these beautiful shots. I will miss your wonderful posts, but will follow you on Flicker. I have enjoyed all of your wonderful pictures, and the fun comments you have sent my way; they too will be missed. Take care my friend! God bless!
You are so sweet and I'm so grateful that we connected on this site.... but you know you haven't lost me yet, my dear friend.... I still have your number and of course we will stay connected with email and would love if you follow my photography on Flickr... you know that's my passion!!
As far as the butterflies go... every time I bring in leaves for the cats to munch, I find eggs... so I can't let them be eaten, now 4 eggs in incubation a handful of little ones and 4 huge ones waiting to hang.... yesterday two made their chrysalis!
We will chat soon!!

You will certainly be missed. My hopes are that you will drop in every chance you get. Love seeing all the great work you have done this year with the butterflies. Still hoping to see some here in Virginia, but not many around my house this year. Take care Angela.
Many thanks Dave.... life keeps us busy so I had to cut out a few things and this site being one... I will miss all my wonderful friends I've made over the years and I thank you for your always kind comments, in time I will pop in again!! FYI... one of my butterflies emerged this morning, but I couldn't release it since it was raining and I had to leave to watch my grandson's so she has to wait for me to get home later today!! Still about 10 more cats to go!! It's probably too late to see them in your garden this year, since they'll be migrating soon... but I'm sure they'll find you next summer!!
Take care, my friend and keep clicking and doing what's fun!!!
