"Lynn had so many caterpillars last year we gotta 4th box. And it's a good thing she did. The nursery was in smaller plastic boxes."
"I warned her not to start this. But after the furst 3 early on
there ended up being eggs after eggs laid out furont."
"She went out evfurry day and brought in teensy tiny 'pillars
and had to feed them all."
"They were purrty obligin' and grew up to be Monarch
Butterflies eventually. We had 102. So glad that
Mackerull over at Trout Towne was wrong about
us gittin' 732 this year. Lynn woulda gone over
the edge."
"I'm just glad they flew away afore winter and filled up my house."
"Lynn says we even had a few 'pillars escape her attention
and we found a few butterflies hatchin' in Seney's
pink garden sedums! And we only fed 9 'pillars
that ended up not hatchin' acause of the parasites
got 'em."

Wow, that is so wonderful to help the Monarchs and even to just watch them turn from caterpillars into those huge, gorgeous butterflies!
They are such beauties and your mom is so wonderful to help them populate, Precious♥

That’s a lot of butterflies. It must be cool to watch!
Precious, your human has done amazing work for monarch conservation! Kudos to her! Now, what about some bee hives? 😉😁❤️
That's an amazing number of butterflies!
One hundred and two sounds like 732 to me! But good work by your mum, Precious. Butterflies are not only beautiful - especially the monarch variety - but are beneficial to our world.
