   What a lovely little guy. I hope to get a few of these so the kids and I can watch them turn into butterflies.

    How fun! I love the idea of snapping a photo of someone else snapping, lol. Love the caterpillar too of course!

    It’s gratifying to find someone who appreciates a butterfly in its caterpillar stage. It’s so easy to dismiss them when they are a “bug.” Bravo!
