June was CATERPILLAR MONTH!! We had a friend help us find our first egg and newly hatched (nearly invisible) monarch caterpillar, and then we went crazy and ended up with 8! 7 made it all the way to a safe outdoor release.
Caterpillars, and proud Papa:
And the metamorphosis begins:
Hanging upside-down |
Cocooning in process!! (This happens pretty fast and we've only captured it this once.) |
Chrysalis |
First emerging |
Wings have filled out, but not quite dry and ready to fly |
In June, we also laid around:
And did worship concerts:
And ate Mama's birthday cake:
And Papa's Father's Day Cake:
And went for a ride in Grandpa and Grandma's pontoon:
