Butterfly #2
Right on time, the second butterfly hatched. This time, I was at home and got to see it. Yet another beautiful specimen.....
I am beginning to be able to tell when the butterflies are going to hatch. The chrysalises turn a darker colour, must be because you can see the dark butterfly wings through the skin. Ben wanted to take a picture of the empty chrysalis.
Ben likes to get the butterflies out of the jar by letting them climb onto his finger. We left this one on the petunias, blowing in the breeze

You know, I hate bugs. And the thing with butterflies is: the wings are lovely but have you seen what's in between?? Eek!
