While I was checking on my Moon flower vine I found another one. This one is much more darker.
If you left click you can see the wing and it's colors.
I sure hope I am able to see this little guy come out of his little home.

Update on my Monarch Cocoon
Lisa from Raccoon Lover recently asked how my cocoon that I blogged about is doing. Well, there has been some change but not much as you can see. Notice the sides are more sunken inward. I guess it has turned a little more darker as well.

Thanks for the update Susie. All those caterpillers I had this summer & I never found any cocoons.
Racquel-They really are camouflaged good. I just got lucky finding the one on the moon flower vine.
Glad you posted the photos, Susie. Even the subtle changes are a delight to see. Good luck with the shots when they finally emerge.
i hope you get to see these babies emerge. thanks for the update, very cool.
Sus,
I've never seen such good cocoon photos... you're getting to be such a camera pro! LOVE your blog.

Susie,
Looks like it won't be too much longer. We expect you to sit outside day and night with your camera to capture the "grand opening".
Kanak and Marmee-Thanks girls. I think it's pretty neat how you can see the wing prints and colors thru the cocoon.
Nesa-Camera pro?, hardly but I really enjoy taking photos. Glad you enjoy my blog.
flydragon-I just checked on the status of it and I don't know how much longer it's going to be. I would love to camp out and watch but I don't think work would appreciate that!
Susie, The Monarch is coming along, you must be very excited! Thanks for a great song to pep up the morning.
Gail
It is so much fun watching those. Hope you get more photos for us to see.
Thanks for the upate Susie. I hope you are home for the arrival, I want to see pictures!
Gail, Darla, and Meadowview-I am very excited about the upcoming birth of these babies. I'm beginning to wonder if it is ever going to happen.
