Before and after pics..
The monarchs are emerging, one by one.
Interesting to realize that these critters will see more of the world than I have.

So far so good for the monarchs. These four, plus three in other locations we could find. One is still munching on the milkweed plant about 5 feet away from the porch.

The one that joined the overhang yesterday hasn't progressed that I can tell. I'll check again this evening if I'm home before dark.

Another one, nine hours later. I found one more nearby. Still several munching on the milkweed nearby.

This year we've had quite a few monarch butterfly caterpillars on our milkweed. Hope this little one makes it.

Made some pizza mostly from scratch. Made the dough by hand, and veggies from the garden.
