By far my most exciting project this year has been raising some Pipevine 
Swallowtail eggs which someone gave me on  August 4th.

They hatched on August 10.

Began pupating around Aug 28.

I wasn't sure if they would eclose this year or overwinter.

Today I can see the faint wing patterns through 4 of the chrysalises which 
means they will probably eclose tomorrow mid morning if they are anything like 
the Black Swallowtails I've raised before.
