How did you capture this? Amazing that such an ugle nasty worm can turn into a beautiful butterfly!

Are you sure that is the same creature? I've been wondering about the little alien in your garden, glad to find out what became of him.
btw, please send me an invite to your soon to be private blog!

i thought of you this weekend. one of my sister's students calls her a lovely monarch, as in a queen, when he's sucking up. (he's foreign...) and i thought he was calling her a butterfly and said, "but oh, you should see what a monarch starts out as!! eeeeeew!" just thought you'd enjoy that :)
