Painted Lady Butterfly update from the library: As of noon on Wednesday 27 April we have 12 butterflies who have emerged; two chrysalises remain. The butterflies are beginning to flit around and perch on the branches and leaves we have in their habitat! We are planning to release them next Tuesday during our preschool Story Time Squad at 10, when we'll meet at Outdoor Recreation's butterfly garden. Until then, please stop by the library to see these gorgeous creatures! ... See MoreSee Less
Ms Pattie cared for our painted lady chrysalises (also known as chrysalides) this weekend. She noticed that between last night and this morning, most of them turned very dark (first set of photos). Then very quietly at the library while she wasn't watching, two butterflies emerged from their chrysalises (second set of photos)! She made a video for you to see, linked in the first comment--or you can stop by the library today and watch! It's a very exciting day! ... See MoreSee Less
