A surprise find


What a wonderful surprise that I found while cleaning up the enclosure for the caterpillars and adding fresh food today. Right near where one of the Monarchs pupated was a newly hatched Gulf Fritillary caterpillar. Apparently when I brought in fresh passionvine the last time there was an egg on it that I didn't see. Thankfully it wasn't eaten by the older caterpillar.
My concern is that it will eat the leaf that the Monarch chrysalis is on. I will probably have to either move the caterpillar or re-locate the chrysalis.

I wish that I could say that the little sneak survived but it didn't. They are so vulnerable at that age.

It was nice to find two more in the garden after losing the youngster. I know by now that you can't always win in this game of life.

Despite the loss I did still beat the odds of only 10% surviving to adulthood.

Re: A surprise find


What a pity that doesn't seem to extend to the lotto. Oh boy what I could do with millions of dollars. I can guarantee that I would be buying the empty lot behind us and turning it into a whole new garden. Of course with that kind of money I would have to break down and hire some help.

I hear ya! Hubby and I play twice a week. I think with the way the economy is going, the lottery may have better odds than our 401 plan! emoticon
