Classroom guests


It's almost back to school time! I like to start the year with something interesting to study, so I've searched my yard for some of my favorite subjects: monarch butterfly caterpillars. I found two tiny caterpillars and one egg. The tiny one just hatched from its egg a few hours ago, the other one a couple of days ago. The dime is in the picture so you can judge their size by a familiar object.

I'll keep adding photos as they grow and eat. I think they'll be very large by the time Sept 7th comes.
