Yesterday...

...was very exciting around here.
 
Woke up to find a 'dark' chrysalis! That's a good thing. Here, you can see the wings.
 
 
I was getting ready to blog about it and the next thing I know...
 
 
That fast! Look at the wings. Wet and crinkly at this point. I like to watch and be near to be sure it doesn't fall and offer assistance if it does. That would NOT be good.  Giving it some minutes and you have...
 
 
A GIRL! 
In less then 5 hours, she was released. Make it to Mexico, my sweet lady.
 
This whole miracle took only 23 days from female laying her eggs to this magical moment. Amazing.
