Look Who's Awake

The Gulf Fritillary emerged from its chrysalis today while I was at work. He made his way to a bright window and that is where I found him. Experiencing this never gets old for me. We let him go outside and he was off to his new life. After he flew away, I thought a good name for him would be Chester. Because he is orange like Chester Cheetah.

Here he is resting before I carried him outside.
