The Black Swallowtail chrysalises are beginning to hatch into absolutely beautiful butterflies!
The first two hatched a couple weeks ago. Last week four more hatched out.
Oddly, all six appear to have been females. Wonder why - diet? temperature? or the fact that they were caged and kept in the garage all winter? Interesting...
There are several more chrysalises. I suspect they'll also be hatching soon. Hopefully they'll stick around our yard this summer.
