This morning we were in the backyard dealing with a shattered window and tears (
but that's another story....) when Dan noticed this shriveled up looking butterfly whose wings were squished and not ready for flight hanging off of the garage. She was in the process of spreading her wings, so to speak. We watched her progress, and about 2 hours later, she had blossomed into a full fledged Swallowtail Butterfly.
Chris and Nate wanted to keep her as a pet, but we decided that wouldn't be very fair to her. So instead she had a moment on Chris' shoulder. They were going to put her on the hydrangea in the front yard, but as they started to put her down, she flew away.
Simply beautiful.
