The butterflies are here!

I was able to release fifty-five healthy butterflies into our backyard. I am keeping five butterflies in my new butterfly pavilion so I can observe them. One flew out, so now I have four.

It finally stopped raining long enough for us to release these butterflies. When it started to rain again they found shelter in our hedges. I have seen several flying around in our yard. I also saw some on my sunflower.

Joshua enjoys helping me release my Monarch butterflies. As you can see they like him! We were so surprised when this butterfly flew off Joshua’s finger onto his hair. We were laughing so hard!
