Earlier in the spring, I brought my children to a butterfly garden at Brookside Gardens. It was surreal and so delightful to walk into a room with so many stunning colors fluttering around us! This week’s photo challenge gives me the perfect opportunity to share pictures of the growth cycle for the Monarch butterfly! …And their chrysalis is among the most incredible I have ever seen in nature!

Thank you! Yes, that’s a bit of my primary teacher-ness peeking out, too, I guess… 🙂
Cool 🙂
