Bug of the Week: Queen Butterfly Emerges
Nov-25-2009 By Roberta
One of the queen caterpillars from two weeks ago formed a chrysalis.
After being beige for about two weeks, the chrysalis turned black.


We could see the pattern of the wings inside. Later in the afternoon:

We took it outside to finish pumping up its wings.

Is there anything more beautiful than a freshly emerged butterfly?
Wishing you all the best.
