Monarch fever is about to overtake Maury, and the library is getting in on the fun. I was so excited this year when I learned that special subject classes would be getting their own monarchs this year. Last year, I was able to observe monarchs in the classrooms, but there's nothing like having an up-close view.
And you need to get up close right now. The larvae are so tiny, you really have to search to find them on the milkweed. They arrived in the library pretty late today, so none of the students have seen them yet. I know they'll be as thrilled as I am! I'm trying to pick the perfect names for these little guys--when I figure it out, I'll let you know. Until then, here are some pictures of the new residents of the Maury library.

monarchs. They arrived just in time. |
