Today all five of our butterflies emerged from their chrysalis'. We decided that we should let them go today so they can fly around and be free outside like they are meant to be.
We noticed that when the butterflies close their wings, they are hard to see in the grass. We talked about how this keeps them safe from predators. When they open their wings they are much easier to see and they are beautiful!
Can you spot the butterfly in this picture???
This little one got pretty lucky! The other kids ran off to play, but she wanted to stay and watch the butterflies a little longer. As she was watching them one flew onto my hand. She was standing and watching so nicely, that I carefully helped the butterfly onto her hand. She was VERY excited!
Here is a short video of one of our butterfly friends!
So beautiful!! 💕🦋💕🦋💕🦋
