What a surprise! After two years of growing milkweed as part of our pollinator garden, I found a monarch caterpillar!
Three different types of milkweed in our garden!
Busy exploring the indoor habitat.
It started out quite small, but doubles in size every few days.
After showing all the classes the hungry caterpillar, I noticed it was getting sluggish and put the caterpillar back in our garden to finish it's journey! Hopefully we will find more caterpillars. There certainly is evidence they are around!
