Monarch butterfly


On a sunny day the butterfly lay a new egg. Two weeks later the egg hatches and turned in to a Caterpillar. It needs foods to grow into a butterfly.

The Caterpillar eats only milk weed from the swan plant tree to make them a butterfly. The Caterpillar eats milk weed so when they are a butterfly, the bird tastes the butterfly and then spews it up.

As the Caterpillar is so fat it builds its energy to hang upside down on a twig and change into a chrysalis. Two weeks later the chrysalis begins to open and a butterfly emerged. The butterfly has to wait for its wings to dry up on before it can fly.
