A very brief journal post on the life cycle of the red admiral butterfly Vanessa atalanta
25th September 2021
I found a caterpillar close to home feeding on nettles. I could only see one, it was pretty exposed on the leaf.

Now a full chrysalis

And the butterfly has emerged!
I made a brief journal post on this caterpillar where I show the adult butterfly.
