All I Can Say is, "Wow!"

If you have never seen a caterpillar turn into a chrysalis, take a few minutes to view this. I promise you will be amazed.

  1. Wow, Zoey! I have been reading your blog every day, waiting for the event to finally happen and I was absolutely transfixed on your video! How amazing to watch the whole process unfold. Thanks for the educational entertainment. Do you video this with your digital video camera or is your still camera able to video that long?

  2. Amazing. I still don't like bugs and stuff but it is interesting to watch. You are getting pretty good with those videos.

  3. Thanks, Giddy & Mom.
    Giddy, I used my regular digital camera. I can video as long as I have the space to accommodate it. Until recently I didn't realize what a nice feature that was.

  5. All I can say is WOW too. I didn't realize it happened so quickly either. I just remember in 3rd grade that we had the chrysalis dangling from the ceiling for a long time before they bloomed.

  8. This is so amazing! I loved it!! How lucky you to film these critters. Sean and I raised Painted Ladies and it was fun to see all this and then release them outside after they got their wings.
    Tell you mom that she shouldn't feel creepy about butterflies, just the nasty bugs like brown recluse spiders, wasps and yellow jackets.

  9. All I could think of was Houdini. I'm sure he wriggled just like that to extricte himself from his tricky situations.

    Amazing filming, Zoey. Thank you.

  16. It was wonderful, Zoey. First they're wrapped up and then while inside they're dissolved and reformed.
    What an odd thing to happen.
