Wednesday's This and That

Caterpillers to Chrysalis

During our small group time, it was time to move the chrysalis to their new home in anticipation of their transformation to butterflies.

The container they were in as caterpillars is filled with their droppings. 

They ate almost all of the food.

In their butterfly garden

The young ladies at our zoom meeting were both dressed for the occasion.

They were both wearing shirts with butterflies!
