Caterpillar Pets

Allie Girl Scout troop is building a way station for the Monarch Butterflies!  She was lucky enough to aquire a little pet for the summer to keep her occupied...and one for her brother too.  These two have been so into these little critters.  We watched them crawl, eat, poop a LOT, grow, and change right before our eyes.  We saw a caterpillar transform into its chrysalis and saw a butterfly dry its wings moments after it emerged!  I know they were sad to see these little guys go as we released them outside, but there's a happy place in our hearts knowing we helped them out into the world.
