No lurking! I demand you join in the fun!

Today was an excellent butterfly day for me. I have a lot of chrysalids that have been that way forever so Mom decided they must have Seasonal Affective Disorder and is giving them light therapy. I had a Polydamas come out the other day, and last night I noticed a Zebra Swallowtail was going to emerge soon! I was excited because it's the caterpillar I picked off Grandma's pawpaw when I was on vacation in WV. It came out about 9am and sat in the critter keeper on my desk. It got a little antsy this afternoon so I threw my sweater over the cage.

Here is me releasing it! FYI, it's easy to get good pictures when they can't fly very well.
