3 Kahuku

Popped into school today and found we had 3 Monarchs bathing in the sun. 2 were recently hatched and one was very content hanging onto KC kid pictures. 

I have also recently found out the Maori name for Monarch is Kahuku (u is pronounced like oo) 

I didn't get any photos as Mrs Busch's children Lachie and Kenzie let them go outside after they had fed them. Jessie McKee also helped. 


There's three more chrysalis' hanging about on the plant. 


I'm afraid this one might not hatch. I noticed the 'gold flecks' were down below and not on top like the others. 


You can see them just at the tip.
