Description
In the fall, Common Milkweed (Ascelpias syriaca) pods seem to explode and send their fluffy seeds out to be carred by the wind. An insect visitor of some sort is exploring this opened pod. Monarch butterflies depend on the Milkweed plant as it is the only food that Monarch caterpillars will eat.
