Wordless Wednesday

Our local Botanical Gardens butterfly house has opened.  I have never visited it so early in the season but was able to see more caterpillars than butterflies this time around.

I even got to see actual eggs being deposited on a leaf! I have raised butterflies the last couple years and never saw this process.

The have a small area in the back where they have the chrysalis and cocoons set up.

Then of course all the flying beauties. A few now and plenty more to come as the season progresses on.

This is my favorite exhibit at the gardens!
