My mom thought it would be a good idea for me to keep track of the flowers I see this year. We found a caterpillar feeding on a yellow plant, identified as partridge pea. The scientific name of this plant is cassia fasciculata.
Mariel took charge of the caterpillar and named it Spunky. We found out it is a yellow sulphur butterfly, and have been watching it eagerly to see if it will turn into a butterfly. He briefly escaped last night and caused a lot of panic, until he was found on the table next to his jar, possibly asleep.
