DAY 24 OF FRAMED - CATERPILLAR TO BUTTERFLY

DAY 24 OF FRAMED
CATERPILLAR TO BUTTERFLY
Today the chrysalis is suddenly much darker in colour.
The protected pupa within, is nearing the end of this stage of its life cycle.
Any day now it will emerge.
Oh and I for one have learnt something new... a moth makes a cocoon - a silk covering.
And a butterfly makes a chrysalis - a hard, smooth covering with no silk.
So there you have it, we have a butterfly on our doorstep after all.
Whether we get to see it or not, is another story.
