That's fabulous. Nicely photographed collage.I have about a dozen milkweed plants but the beetles ate all of the leaves and there is nowhere for the Monarchs to lay their eggs! So bummed.
Such a wonderful sight, both the butterflies and the caterpillars. I've found a number of monarch eggs on the milkweed plants that are along the back of my yard — hoping to catch them when they morph into caterpillars.
