Two Butterflies...

Two of our butterflies have hatched!! We are all so excited. This whole process has been so amazing to experience. In a couple of the pictures you can see some red spots, this is not butterfly blood, but instead butterfly frass (manure). We have some flowers in the tent with "dew" (sugar water) on them and of course the orange slices. All in all a very interesting time. We are waiting for three more to open...

I can just imagine the big eyes of your kids as they watched that! Have any of those butterflies been helped to "accidently" escape from their nursery yet! That temptation for Brevon has to be high!!
