Here are the last four Monarchs being released. Overall 2024 was a success, I collected a total of 120 eggs, from egg to caterpillar to butterfly. I had about 10 losses, including two that eclosed with crumbled wings and couldn't be released. Two didn't make it out of the chrysalis, two had sudden death and four were devoured by bigger caterpillars.
I feel honored to have been given this opportunity...to my little winged friends, I will miss you!
