Milky W. Butterfly

I almost panicked when we went to check on Milky this afternoon and his chrysalis was broken and empty. I thought for sure he was gone and we’d missed his big reveal.

Fortunately, he hadn’t flown far - 

he was on the sidewalk, a few feet from his old digs, still working on getting his wings dry and functioning. Another minute and we’d definitely have missed him.

Jac and Donovan followed Milky as he fluttered across the yard to a shady spot near some flowers,

with Jac taking pictures and videos the whole time. 

The kids were thrilled. (Me too!) So glad we got to see Milky’s transition. Live well and fly free, Milky!
