I was pleased to hear that you could watch the birth of one of these lovely creatures. It sounds suspiciously like a Mourning Cloak butterfly instead of a moth. Was the rest of the "bug", for want of a better term right now, a dark purply blue, almost black colour? And was it about 4 inches across the top part of the wings? And after the "bug" left, was the "cocoon" a very small whitish structure, almost lilke wax paper? Or does it seem to have individual threads running through its structure? You might have to use a magnifying glass to see them. Lots of fun and a very impressive process; I always marvel at it. JET
