Lift-off!

Do you remember our “calapitters” from a few weeks ago?!  Well our cocoons have worked their magic and we welcomed four little moths into the world.  Truly magical!  One by one she lifted them carefully out of the tub on her finger and held them up to take their maiden flight.  (Once they made their cocoon we moved them from the original home to a larger one so once they emerged they wouldn’t run the risk of breaking their wings in such a small space).  With a face full of complete joy she watched them make their way into the wide wide world.  Now, each time we glimpse dark moth during our outdoor adventures she is certain that it is one of her own dear creatures and calls a greeting. 

Goodbye little ones…thank you for your visit!
