Art lover, photos my own unless noted. climate science, anti-racism, gardening, animals, insects, medicine, democracy, kindness, love & hope. I block a lot, don’t worry about it, I don’t either.
I’m on my 4th generation and am currently completely smitten 🥰 with Jolly Jesters. 🌱
We call all the Monarch caterpillars, Bob. These Bobs are a few days apart in age. A third just hatched Bob, almost got trampled by the big Bob, it dropped off the plant on a thread of silk like a spider!😮🙀
This is a newly hatched, first stage monarch caterpillar. Teeny tiny little thing that is barely visible, with black spikes. Extremely magnified image. #bloomscrolling 🌱 #pollinator #monarch
We’ve released 3 this week! Every time we bring in milkweed to feed them, we get new ones hatching 🙀😂 #insects #bloomscrolling #monarch #butterfly #pollinator

One of my Monarch babies released to the wild after breaking out of the chrysalis. I raised 5 in a butterfly tent in 2025. Started w 1 that hitchhiked a ride inside while hubs was watering. Neighbors brought one over & the others were tiny babies that were on the sprigs of milkweed used as food 🌱 🦋
On No Kings Day, after the event, we went to a nice restaurant and saw this😹🙀😹
