Another monarch butterfly emerged successfully from its chrysalis in our butterfly house, making our total rise to 140 healthy hatches.

You would think after so many, it might become a little boring to witness. I have to admit the excitement only enhances, as we have witnessed that for one reason or another, not all are able to hold on tight, hanging with its wings downward drying successfully to flap and fly away. Those who end up with crumpled wings live out their lives in our butterfly house with plenty of nectar.
