barton update
Martha sent me these pictures of the ONE monarch caterpillar she has seen in her vast open field above May Pond in Barton, Vermont.
Notice the caterpillar has attached itself to the chewed milkweed leaf and is beginning to curl up.
The chrysalis appears! How does that happen? The big transformation begins. Stay tuned.

I can only gasp at the beauty and miracle of it all....and pray for the return of many next summer.
We must all try to be good to this world so that the monarchs will survive...and if they can, there's hope for us all.
