I snapped these pictures of a beautiful Black Swallowtail Butterfly as she (my 3 year old assures me it is a "she") has just emerged from her chrysalis. We found her in our backyard by our wood pile. She was holding tightly to our chain link fence while the wind whipped around her. She was so delicate and I enjoyed watching her gracefully wings as they stretched and dried in the sun. Unfortunately I don't think she was able to fly, the top of her right wing seems folded down and her left looked a little creased in the middle. She held our attention for quite awhile and made me think of God's creation.
