BUTTERFLY RELEASE:

I was giving the butterflies some fresh sugar water and a strawberry and one flew
right out of the tiny opening right into my lap, then started flying around my living room. My husband, Terry, helped me catch it and then we released it outside.....

Trying to catch it
We used a glass jar and a piece of paper

Got it!

Releasing it outside on our wood pile.......

 After the first one escaped, I decided they were all ready to leave
however, the butterflies had different ideas..... none of them wanted to leave!
They apparently were quite content inside the habitat I created for them.......

Finally Terry came out and helped them along......

Emma and I trying to coax the butterflies out,
but like above picture shows..... Terry got them to fly
out by putting his hand in the habitat and
"shoeing" them out!
