Coming up from the basement after a tornado warning I noticed fluttering in my butterfly cage. Well it was pouring rain and I couldn't release right then but I had an iris on the table so popped it into the cage. When storm ended it was dark and very wet so this am I released. They put on quite a show climbing around, occasionally sitting on the flowers I offered.
I had walked past that cage on the landing all winter and almost forgot what was in there. How smart mother nature can be!!
My first releases!!
Great picture!! Congratulations :)

So pretty! Yeah, it's hard to remember to always check the ones that overwintered. Good thing they flutter around so we can notice!
Way to go Jam! I am sure they are thankful to be in your basement during the storm and now to be free to nectar.
