This morning I knew this chrysalis was about to be ready. Went for an hour for a walk, came back, and there is a new Monarch 🦋 😍. Still has to let the wings dry and unfold.
Always in wonder how this large butterfly fits into the small bag.

The butterfly has emerged and is clinging to the now translucent empty bag.
The butterfly is orange with black veins and white dots along the edges of the wings.

A dark grey bag containing the developing butterfly, hanging under the edge of a clay pot. The black and orange pattern of the wings is already visible, a sign that the bag will open soon.

The Hackberry Emperor butterfly, whose only host plant is the hackberry tree. This not the first I've seen this week...Which fits as I've had so many young hackberry trees pop up in the yards this year, hinting at a hidden larger tree nearby.
Grow hackberry, get butterfly! Yay!

A gorgeous orange butterfly with white and black spots, making the wings appear similar to a monarchs, but more lace-like. It is facing away from the camera on a wooden railing with a large, dried splooch of bird poo on it. There are green leaves of passionflower vines in the background that are near a medium sized hackberry tree in the raised garden bed.

A Red-Spotted Purple butterfly (Limenitis arthemis astyanax) on the purple coneflowers. The red spots at top corner of the wings are barely visible. But the shimmery blue color stands out.

A large butterfly on the reddish-orange center of a purple coneflower.  The butterfly's wings are almost black at the top, then fade to blue toward the bottom.   The edges of the wings have a row a blue dots outlined in black.

Essex skipper (𝘛𝘩𝘺𝘮𝘦𝘭𝘪𝘤𝘶𝘴 𝘭𝘪𝘯𝘦𝘰𝘭𝘢), from Sunday's hike on the Wiley Trails.

With the big eyes and fluffy body, doesn't it just look like a little teddy bear with wings? neocat_floof_cute
