Monarch in chrysalis stage, in cocoon at the gardens, hanging from a redwood tree.
For reference this what the caterpillar looked like before in the larvae stage. Hanging out with milkweed, the plant of choice for monarch butterflies.

We found this monarch. It was barely able to move. Probably at the end of its magical life.
