The Giant Swallowtail is no longer the largest species in our Butterfly Pavilion, but still an impressive butterfly! This is the last week to visit our #ButterflyPavilion this summer, open tomorrow (Wednesday, August 31) through Monday, September 5. | Santa Barbara Museum of Natural History

32 reactions | Wow, has it grown! This giant swallowtail caterpillar is now the size of my baby finger. It will soon go into its chrysalis stage and unlike the monarch butterfly, it will actually overwinter under twigs & leaves until the spring when it will emerge as a butterfly! #giantswallowtail #gardenpathhomemadesoap #ontariotourism #southeasternontario #myottawa #ecobusiness #vkh #ontariogardening #caterpillars | Garden Path Homemade Soap | Facebook
