Behold the Butterfly
by Amy Rosenberg
The St. B landscaping team planted some milkweed in the front garden a few years ago. A milkweed plant is a source of nutrition for the monarch butterfly. Caterpillars and monarchs were never seen, though evidence of their feasting was always apparent.
This year, the plant leaves have been eaten, caterpillars spotted, and a monarch just out of the chrysalis was resting nearby! Nature doing what nature does so beautifully!
When asked if she camped out to get such great pictures, Amy Rosenberg said she was “just being attentive. It was fun to see the results as I haven’t been so lucky in years past!”
