Field Notes

Description:

I always looked for the Monarch Caterpillars to be plump and big. Well I just discovered how small that are after hatching from the tiny white egg. I feel kind of silly now. Black antenna, Yellow and black stripes on body. On Milkweed plant (of course).

Habitat:

Milkweed plant.
