If it's Spring, there must be butterflies!

For the past two weeks I have had young readers stop by my office to ask when the butterflies are coming.  Well, they are here!

That's right!  The butterfly larvae arrived on Tuesday morning and are now in my office window!  The little wigglers have already started to grow.  It is amazing to watch how quickly(about three weeks) the caterpillars will grow, spin their chrysalises, and then hatch as beautiful Painted Lady butterflies.

This is such a fun spring tradition to share with our community.  We invite young and old alike to stop by often to help us "Celebrate Spring!"
