Transition

Gradually  more and more of our caterpillars are making the transition to the chrysalis.

We have now released 54 butterflies with three more drying their wings as I type.  At las count there were 84 chrysalis many caterpillars in the "j" formation and still possibly as many as 100 caterpillars still eating.

Not bad considering the success rate is typically noted as 5% of course that's "in the wild" and not our special Monarch Cafe habitat "hotels".
