Congrats Alexis Gutierrez, she had two butterflies hatch today!

They are a little fragile and don't move much in the begining. After a few hours, they will walk around and fly from side to side.

When you release your butterfly, they don't fly away right away. You can gently place it on a flower or on a tree branch.

Do butterflies get scared? Yes! When we were going to release our butterfly, it lifted its wings together and seemed to be trembling. Once he became calm, he lowered his wings and sipped nectar from the flowers.

The cool thing is: even though we set them free, both butterflies are still around. The following day, we saw in our backyard tree and this morning I saw one basking in the sun on top of a flower pot!
