Let’s hope more monarchs think so too!

Here in Ohio, the Department of Natural Resources is urging people to plant milkweed- it seems that the monarch butterfly population has gone down here in recent years…

Good to know. I hope people respond … wherever they are!

I saw a few fat caterpillars in my garden the other day. It won’t be long now.

That’s great news. I saw more caterpillars in our patch last year, but I never found any chrysalides. So, this year, I helped one along.

I just saw one today. Only the sixth one I’ve seen all summer, but compared to seeing none last year it seems like a lot!

Yes, let’s hope that’s an upward trend!
