  3. You are the 2nd one in two days that shared a photo. The other blogger in Canada showed the monarchs hatching...they'll be flying down here soon! Great photo (ps...thanks for the heads up on nature's heart!)

  5. I read the title of your post in my Feedly feed and wondered what Monarch crystals were. Then when I opened up the blog post I realized I read it wrong...lol Fantastic picture.

  9. wow...this is a lovely capture Rose !! I remember ( in the days that I did not own a Digital camera ) our oleander tree's leaves having a plethora of these God's lovely Creations !!!They becmae more transparent and colourful with time and I would look forward to the beautiful butterfly coming out!! The Fils were rather expensive and we just couldn't afford it !!
    But now I have two cameras and one nice phone and alas! No butterflies or cocoons!!

  18. Do you know what popped out? I would like to hear it was a beautiful butterfly. The background is so smooth it is hard to guess what it might have been. BTW, the crop I was considering was straight across through the dark log. You could just hold up a sheet of paper for a "do it yourself" crop!
