We spotted a monarch in our garden and have hypothesized that it might be laying eggs and that is why we have seen a caterpillar there. We also believe that when our caterpillar leaves its chrysalis it will look like this too. #cpsELbest @CPS_EL @tetonscience @FVEFalcons

We’ve been keeping an eye on our caterpillar in the butterfly garden this week. It was certainly very hungry and had fattened up. The past two days it has just been hanging out under a leaf. We are patiently waiting for it to make its chrysalis. #cpsELbest @CPS_EL @tetonscience

Today we learned about the lifecycle of a pumpkin plant; so of course, we had to go into the garden and see for ourselves the real plants growing. #cpsELbest @CPS_EL @FVEFalcons @tetonscience
