@alysonkcameron Cheers!

@zoolamdan I can feel the excitement from here! HBD!

This makes me so happy! Lego Galaxy Explorer reissue! A 🎂 gift from my family. Gonna start building this up and watch The Empire Strikes Back tonight! 😄

Daniel Lam in Michigan captured this photo on August 1, 2022, and wrote: "Who needs a Choco Taco when you've got a Monarch Taco! It always amazes me how these caterpillars can contort themselves to keep eating the good stuff!" Thank you, Daniel! earthsky.org/earthsky-commu…

I spotted this female monarch depositing her eggs on a milkweed pod. On the right is a closeup of one of her eggs. This is a first for me, I thought they only left eggs on the underside of leaves! Her eggs are camouflaged because of similar looking bumps on the pod. Smart mama!

Who needs a Choco Taco when you can have a monarch taco?

I’ve never seen a pair of monarchs mating until today. These 2 chased each other all around the yard & ended up on some milkweed. When I snuck over they took off and i got one terrible pic as they flew away. They both returned later and chilled out in the yard.

This tiger swallowtail lost one of its hindwings. Amazing how it can still fly so well without it!

Kenner Star Wars CAP-2 Captivator. Bossk is off to collect his bounty! One of my favorite mini-rigs as a kid. I still have that one too, but it’s got only one leg left 😫

Recent flybys in my yard … many tiger swallowtails, monarchs, and a couple (i think) red spotted admirals 😍

Daniel Lam in Kalamazoo, Michigan, took this photo this week and wrote: "Late stage monarch caterpillar in my milkweed jungle." 🐛 Thank you, Daniel! bit.ly/3Pphbbq #caterpillar #nature #EarthSky

Spotted a big bubba monarch caterpillar in our milkweed jungle! Should be chrysalis time very soon!

Sometimes the smallest milkweed can be hosting a monarch caterpillar. This little loner milkweed is a good 10 feet away from a big patch of mature milkweed. Lo & behold there was a little dude chomping away! 🤩

@frogrob I should probably bring it in. The ants are ruthless & they might pick it off. I’ve put some ant baits between the milkweed that have thinned them out a bit but still …

@zoolamdan That's neat!

Found a fresh monarch egg! There was a mom cruising through the yard today & she must have made a stop. Hopefully there are more!

One of my lupines started to bloom and I had another tiger swallowtail visit today!

Found this little monarch caterpillar eating its way through a milkweed flower. Go go go! 😋
