Time our friends to move on....first smell of fresh air and then the big release.

Our butterfly hut and a picture of our butterfly lap books. This was a very nice unit with a wonderful class with Mrs. Rhodes. The recorded class was a great reference for us.

They're here!!

Waiting to hatch. You can almost see the outline of the painted lady in the chrysalis.

Our Butterfly Adventure

Our caterpillars going into J formation and a chrysalis.

Anna and Rebekah's caterpillars to date. We lost a caterpillar yesterday, Sept. 21. So we are down to two.

Aaron's Butterflies

The first one hatches during class.
If you look closely you can see the one on the disc emerging.
You can almost see the one on the left emerging.

Painted Ladies.

A better view of the hatching butterfly.

We put a plant into the habitat after noticing them breeding. It will be interesting to see if they laid any eggs.

Release day.
