Caterpillar Update |
On Friday, when I got up and checked on the caterpillars in the morning I saw that two of the Painted Ladies had formed a chrysalis! The biggest one that is left is about 3.5 cm. The Spicebushes are about 3.5 cm. They aren't growing very fast, maybe because it has gotten a lot cooler here. They seem healthy though. The sulfurs are about 6.5 - 7 mm now. The five tiny Black Swallowtails are around 4 mm. Still pretty much the same adult butterflies around, but in smaller numbers. |
