(Monarch Caterpillar (Danaus plexippus) - 01) This photo was submitted to us by Gretchen Roberts, Vero Beach FL. She wrote: "These are my first Monarch caterpillars to be drawn to my (once neglected) butterfly garden. I'm so excited and wanted to share!!!"  When the monarch butterflies return from their southern migration to Mexico, and possibly other location, they lay their eggs on milkweed plants. The eggs hatch in about 3 to 5 days as the 1/8 inch long baby caterpillars eat their way out of the eggs and begin to dine on the milkweed.

lamb-right lamb-left Presented here are just a few of the countless components of God's creation.  Just as we cannot have human and animal life without water and plants, neither can we have lasting peace without love and compassion.  It is our hope and prayer that this series will motivate people to live and act in a cruelty-free manner; that we would no longer hurt or destroy each other, the animals or our environment.
