For the second time, we have had the wonderful opportunity to watch the exciting metamorphosis of caterpillars to butterflies in our very own house. The company,
Insect Lore, sends caterpillars in a jar that you then transfer to the butterfly habitat you see in the pictures after they form their chrysalides, and 10 days or so later you can watch new butterflies emerge. Today was a beautiful fall day and Isabelle decided to let her butterflies go.
Can you see the butterfly on Isabelle's hand?
The last butterfly was eating from a pear core and wouldn't fly away. Isabelle was able to hold the pear core and observe the butterfly up close for quite a long time before she gently placed it on a rose. Thank you, Miss (or Mr.) Butterfly.

Very cool!
