Kia ora tamariki ma, I was frolicking about in the garden at my house today and guess what I saw? We have had quite a few swan plants growing this year - even though we didn't plant them! It was a lovely surprise to find them and today when I went out I saw a butterfly just emerging from its chrysalis and sitting drying its wings in preparation for flying off. How exciting - I've never seen one so up close before. Then when I looked more closely I could see two caterpillars on the plant - one eating busily and one, who had obviously eaten all it could hold, hanging upside down ready to turn into a chrysalis! I'm going to go out everyday now and check up to see what's happening on the swan plant!
Keep safe and be kind.

That is so so so cool.

Hi Jasmine, you are asking amazing questions! If I was a caterpillar I would probably stay in my garden because their are lots of lovely swan plants to nibble on. If I was a butterfly I would fly to Wellington to see my sister who I miss very much.
