Transformation for May

Monarch Butterfly Chrysalis on Sunflower
This is the photo from my Monarch Butterfly Calendar for 2018. It shows a monarch butterfly that will soon emerge from its chrysalis. You can see the wings perfectly formed inside, the chrysalis has become transparent, and the gold dots are still there that we saw last month. This is the culmination of the transformation from caterpillar to butterfly.  I wish you a month of transformations starting with this beautiful day of spring. This can be good day to set your intentions for the rest of the month – what transformations would you like?

As with all of my monarch images, they are butterflies that I raised last summer, and hope to do it again this summer.
