Description
I had the unexpected pleasure of watching the Eclosion of a Zebra Longwing yesterday. The nature center I visited has a small butterfly enclosure and there were rows of chrysalises catching the morning sun. Several of them were emerging and I focused on this one for a few shots. I had never seen the emergence of a butterfly live so it was a real treat.
Thanks very much for your views and comments.
