That is so cool! Our 13 year old was so inspired by the caterpillar pics that when he discovered a large specimen in our yard he decided to keep it -- we did some research, found that it was a black swallowtail, and fed it plenty of Queen Anne's Lace (a.k.a. ragweed -- ahchoo!) It's snug in its chrysalis now and we're waiting.... Thanks for sharing!!
Such fun! Thank you for taking a few off my hands! :)
