Here are all the different butterflies I have seen in my yard -

The 1st picture I posted - those "eggs" disappeared after a couple of days, and I am not sure those were monarch eggs.

But I do have caterpillars on other milkweed plants -

Found several more caterpillars-

Starting to pupate -

7 chrysalis found so far-

There is a frog, a chrysalis and a caterpillar in this picture -

I love the little frog! It's as if he knows he color coordinates nicely with the monarchs.

I found three chrysalis on one of my hostas today. Most of them are eaten to the ground by deer by now. Think this will keep them safe?

3 butterflies emerged so far

Love the last picture. That's incredible.
