When talking about self in profile u say that u raise and foster butterflies????
July 14th, 2014  
@creativeaddict yes.Laur.I collect Monarch and other butterfly eggs in the wild and raise them indoors for release.Pecticides and predators keep most eggs from reaching maturity. Just giving nature a helping hand.I used to do this project with children when I taught.Andi teach workshops fir educators with the Monarch Teacher Network.

What a cute look, I thought they were craft make of knitting yarns.
July 14th, 2014  
They certainly do look like bracelets, great macro.
July 14th, 2014  
How lovely to get 4 in a row like that, and they are so interesting looking.
July 14th, 2014  
Great shot! Never knew about these caterpillars.
July 14th, 2014  
Wow! They certainly do look like friendship bracelets, well caught
July 14th, 2014  
Haha, perfect caption! Nice detail.
July 14th, 2014  
Love the white bits at either end of the caterpillars
July 14th, 2014  
I remember taking a pic of one of these at the beginning of my first year and it took ages to identify what it was! They look so furry it's hard to think they do so much damage in such a short space of time!
July 14th, 2014  
Will they spoil it for the monarchs? Nice capture
July 14th, 2014  
Jo
Holy cow, they are making a real meal of it!! great shot of these little munchers.

July 15th, 2014  
This is wonderful--these critters are actually very cute and a great shot!
July 15th, 2014  
Time to grow more Milkweed so there's enough for Tussocks and Monarchs. Sounds like a children's book to me! Great shot.
July 15th, 2014  
can't tell if they're fearsome (a devouring army) or funny!
July 15th, 2014  
They're going to town!
July 15th, 2014  
Wonderful detail! I like the shape that looks like a big chomp mark in the back of the leaf.
July 15th, 2014  
Whaaaat??? That's what I thought when I saw the photo. Awesome shot, I've never seen anything like it.
July 16th, 2014
