My daughter and I watched this butterfly from a caterpillar on. Very cool.
Hi and welcome to Project Noah, Lynn! You have 2 really nice spottings and since you know the identities of both, it would be great if you took a few minutes to fill in the spotting blanks. That way others can look at your spottings and learn all about the species. If you have any personal story surrounding the spotting, you can include that in the notes section. By the way, this animal is an arthropod, so I have moved it to that category for you. We look forward to seeing more of your spottings in the near future!
