There are definitely two Monarch butterflies in our backyard. We have been seeing them fluttering back and forth among the pink milkweed plants, or flying in tandem up and down. As soon as I got home yesterday, they swung by the glass patio door, challenging me to come out and take their pictures.

Any caterpillars yet? Big surprise, the birds consumed ours. Could not believe it, given their reputation for bad taste.

No caterpillars yet. Two years ago, the birds ate them all after a few days. This year, we shall see.

It is exciting and relatively easy. Milkweed grows like a weed. 🙂

Thank you Takami! I think they have settled in in the nearby woods after finding a good source of food in the milkweed.
