I have many of these large beautiful butterflies in my yard. This is a male and they are sometimes easy to photograph since they land on the flowers to feed.

OKAY so I had one more photo for this weeks assignment These Boots are Made for Walking. Yes that's me the one standing up back around 1975 and this was how I dressed most of the time. That was my sons babysitter Denise but actually more like my sister, we were very close but I haven't seen her in almost 26 years and she is around 43 now.

I had another Monarch Butterfly emerge this morning and this one was a female. I actually tried to catch the whole thing buy putting the chrysalis right next to the computer while I was on Buzznet. But sadly even though I was able to get photo after photo they did come out a bit blurred. The lighting wasn't completely right and the whole process only takes less than 20 seconds of the chrysalis splitting open & the butterfly emerging. But I will include some of these pics in my journal. And I do have three more chrysalids left so maybe…]]> butterfly close up insect lepidopthera macro Buzznet,butterfly,close up,insect,lepidopthera,macro bizarreland 2008-08-18T15:36:28Z bizarreland http://cdn.buzznet.com/assets/users16/bizarreland/default/thumb-msg-121909898888.jpg http://cdn.buzznet.com/assets/users16/bizarreland/default/synd-msg-121909898888.jpg http://cdn.buzznet.com/assets/users16/bizarreland/default/mob-msg-121909898888.jpg http://cdn.buzznet.com/assets/users16/bizarreland/default/gallery-msg-121909898888.jpg http://cdn.buzznet.com/assets/users16/bizarreland/default/large-msg-121909898888.jpg http://cdn.buzznet.com/assets/users16/bizarreland/default/feat-msg-121909898888.jpg 26 0 http://bizarreland.buzznet.com/user/photos/?id=42199741

Well this was last night when I couldn't release him due to some pretty intense storms we were having. He had started to become very active in my Butterfly case so I picked one of my African Violet stems and put it in there and he landed right on it and stayed just like this for about an hour. As soon as it got dark last night he calmed down in the case and hung upside down on the screening and stayed that way. I released him this morning into a beautiful sunny day. I got a few shots of him…]]> butterfly close up flower insect lepidopthera macro Buzznet,butterfly,close up,flower,insect,lepidopthera,macro bizarreland 2008-08-16T09:02:05Z bizarreland http://cdn.buzznet.com/assets/users16/bizarreland/default/thumb-msg-121890252541.jpg http://cdn.buzznet.com/assets/users16/bizarreland/default/synd-msg-121890252541.jpg http://cdn.buzznet.com/assets/users16/bizarreland/default/mob-msg-121890252541.jpg http://cdn.buzznet.com/assets/users16/bizarreland/default/gallery-msg-121890252541.jpg http://cdn.buzznet.com/assets/users16/bizarreland/default/large-msg-121890252541.jpg http://cdn.buzznet.com/assets/users16/bizarreland/default/feat-msg-121890252541.jpg 14 0 http://bizarreland.buzznet.com/user/photos/?id=42083881
I wanted to release him after he was all dry and his wing's were ready for flying. But because our weather had been very stormy all day I decided to release him on Saturday. These Butterflies are very strong even though you would think of them as fragile. Well I wouldn't suggest you handle them unless you know the proper way so you don't injure them. He would have tucked himself under a branch and waited for the weather to improve but why not wait so I could show you him outside.

This is the result of it's journey, this is a male and he is just beautiful. When they first break out of the Chrysalis their wings are small and all wrinkled up. The black lines in the wings are veins and have a substance similiar to blood. The abdomen is very swollen and filled with this blood. So when the butterfly emerges it pumps the blood from the abdomen into the veins in the wings and that is how the wings expand. It takes about an hour or two for the wings to become firm and ready to fly.
